Jayden Collins, 16, was shot and killed on the night of August 5, 2025, outside a home on the 5600 block of North Bonita Vista Street in the northwest Las Vegas Valley after a large house party spilled into the street. Officers arrived around 10 p.m. and found him unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds; the Clark County coroner later ruled the death a homicide. Early accounts say a fight at the party escalated into gunfire, and more than 30 minutes of 911 audio released by police captured witnesses pleading for help and describing gunshots, screaming, and people fleeing.

Dispatch logs placed first calls around 10:05 p.m.; responding officers found Collins in front of the house with several wounds. Detectives pursued a gang-related motive, reporting they found a handgun in his waistband and that social media group chats referenced being up on the scoreboard, a phrase described as gang vernacular for retaliatory violence. On August 22 police arrested a 17-year-old, Elijah Belt-Campbell, on a charge of open murder and prosecutors moved to try him as an adult; court records and police reports cited by local outlets say he admitted to the shooting and posted messages afterward authorities interpreted as boasting.

If anyone attended that party or has information about the argument that turned deadly, please come forward.
