Norzel Ross Jr, 55, was fatally shot on Sunday, January 14, 2024, inside an apartment at the Play Vista complex on the 3700 block of East Bonanza Road near Pecos in Las Vegas. The fatal shooting occurred about 11 a.m. after a heated verbal argument between Ross and his longtime girlfriend. Her 30-year-old son, who also lived in the apartment, came out of his room during the dispute and the confrontation turned physical before the son shot Ross. Medical personnel pronounced Ross dead at the scene; family members later confirmed his identity and described him as a good dude.

After the shooting the girlfriend’s son surrendered to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and was reported to be cooperating with investigators; the girlfriend was also taken into custody. Relatives said Ross’s relationship with the woman had been tumultuous for about a decade. He was originally from Kansas City, Missouri, and is survived by family including a nine-year-old daughter who lived in Las Vegas.

Does anyone who knew Ross or his family have information about the relationship or the events that day?
