On the afternoon of July 7, 2023, 23-year-old Tymere Saideek Snead was fatally shot in a parking lot on the 300 block of West Sahara Avenue in Las Vegas, near the Gold and Beyond pawn shop between the Allure Las Vegas Condos and the Golden Steer restaurant. First responders found Snead with a gunshot wound to his torso and he was taken to University Medical Center, where he died.

Metro Police identified 19-year-old Robtravion Lee as the primary suspect. Investigators say Lee and Snead were friends and alleged accomplices in a June 30 gunpoint robbery of the Christian Louboutin store at The Shops at Crystals, where about $20,000 in merchandise was taken, and police suggested Snead’s shooting may be related to that earlier crime. Surveillance from the pawn shop parking lot reportedly shows Lee meeting with Snead, talking for a few minutes, then shooting him and running west to Tam Drive before getting into the back of a blue Dodge Magnum that left northbound.

Lee later posted an Instagram tribute to Snead reading Longlivemere with broken-heart emojis. On July 28 Lee was arrested and booked on an open murder charge; he also faces charges tied to the Louboutin robbery including burglary with a deadly weapon, three counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, and conspiracy to commit robbery. Does anyone have information about Snead, his movements that afternoon, or the parking lot surveillance footage?
