Late morning and early afternoon on March 14, 2024, gunfire broke out in a North Las Vegas neighborhood on the 1900 block of Solana Del Norte Way, near Clayton Street and Washburn Road. Officers found 28-year-old Lewis Rand suffering multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to University Medical Center and later pronounced dead. The Clark County Coroner’s Office ruled the death a homicide.

Detectives worked the case without a named suspect for nearly two weeks. On March 27, 2024, 30-year-old Steven Vidana-Garcia was arrested in connection with the fatal shooting and booked into the Clark County Detention Center on open murder, robbery, and burglary charges. At the time of that arrest he was also facing separate charges for possession of a stolen vehicle and attempted grand larceny. Authorities have not released the investigative details that led to the arrest and say the investigation remains ongoing.

If anyone saw activity in the Solana Del Norte Way area on March 14 or has information that could help investigators, please come forward.
