Victorlee Quitalig Boardley was 25 when he was shot and killed on March 18, 2022, in the 4700 block of Boulder Bay Street in North Las Vegas. Security cameras in the neighborhood recorded a confrontation between Boardley and another man; the footage reportedly shows the other man raising a semi-automatic pistol and firing. Boardley was found on the ground with a gunshot wound to the chest and later died of that wound, according to the Clark County coroner’s office.

Investigators identified 30-year-old Javier Benitez as a suspect. Benitez, described as known in the neighborhood with a history of altercations, was seen in the video and later taken into custody after a North Las Vegas Police SWAT team executed a search warrant at his residence. He was booked at the Clark County Detention Center on a charge of murder with the use of a deadly weapon and held without bail.

If anyone witnessed the March 18 confrontation or has information about what led up to it, please come forward.
