Abraham Acosta, 32, was fatally shot on July 1, 2021, at a 7-Eleven near Silverado Ranch Boulevard and Maryland Parkway in Henderson. Surveillance footage shows Acosta approaching a Nissan Altima and apparently handing a lighter to the driver, later identified as John Anthony Carrillo, before Carrillo shot Acosta in the face and drove away in the car taken from another victim earlier that day.

The shooting was part of a three-day crime spree that began June 29, 2021, during which Carrillo is linked to multiple violent incidents in Las Vegas and Henderson, including two other homicides. Investigators arrested Carrillo and charged him with three counts of murder plus robbery, attempted robbery, burglary, kidnapping, and assault with a deadly weapon. He told officers he had smoked methamphetamine; prosecutors say that and his prior violent felony convictions are factors in seeking the death penalty.

Does anyone have information about Acosta’s movements that day or saw the Nissan Altima near the 7-Eleven around midday?
