Curtis Smith was 18 when he was shot in Las Vegas in the early hours of April 1, 2023. Officers first responded about 2:20 a.m. to reports of gunfire near Tamara Costa Court and Sunrise Mountain Drive and found evidence of a shooting but no people at the scene. A short time later a black SUV arrived at Centennial Hospital with Smith, who had a critical gunshot wound to the neck; he was later moved to University Medical Center and died on April 2, 2023.

Investigators say the shooting appears to have involved an exchange of gunfire between individuals in two vehicles. No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified. Authorities are seeking information about a stolen black 2018 Kia, Nevada plate LVV0Y8, and have released surveillance footage of that vehicle in connection with the case. If anyone saw activity near Tamara Costa Court or recognizes the Kia, can you share what you know with investigators?
