Christopher Masters, 48, was shot and killed in an alley behind the 3700 block of Royal Crest Street in Las Vegas on November 9, 2021. He and an acquaintance had been robbed at gunpoint two days earlier after Masters won a $4,000 jackpot; that evening the same two assailants returned and demanded more money. When Masters and his friend refused, one of the men fired, striking Masters multiple times in the chest. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officers found Masters at 3:53 p.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Witnesses identified 18-year-old Jeremiya Hines as the gunman, and police arrested him on November 18 on Royal Crest Street. Reportedly Hines at first gestured toward himself when detectives mentioned local accusations but later denied shooting Masters. Hines was booked on murder and attempted murder charges and later pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter; sentencing was set for June 2022 with a possible sentence up to 10 years.
