Daniel Montes-Rodriguez, 29, was found dead on a sidewalk in Las Vegas in the early morning of Saturday, November 14, 2020. A business owner discovered his body at about 7 a.m. near Miller Avenue and Lexington Street in the Historic Westside neighborhood; first responders pronounced him dead at the scene from a gunshot wound to the head. The Clark County coroner ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators located a car near his body and believe he may have arrived in it, but how he came to be on the sidewalk and how long he had been there before discovery were unclear in the initial stages. The motive remains unknown and, in the days after the shooting, detectives had not identified witnesses or a suspect. No arrests or suspect identifications have been announced and the case remains open and unsolved.
