In the early morning hours of September 2, 2018, Santiago Moreno-Contreras, a 37-year-old Hispanic man, was found dead in his utility van at the southwest corner of East Lake Mead Boulevard and North McCarran Street in North Las Vegas. The van was used for his mobile car wash business. Responding officers initially found him slumped over in the driver’s seat and his injuries were not immediately apparent; the Clark County coroner’s office later determined he had sustained multiple gunshot wounds and ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators believe the shooting occurred in the parking lot where the van was located. Authorities said this was the second homicide they had worked in a little over two hours that Sunday morning, though they did not consider the two incidents related. As of September 7, 2018, no arrests had been made and no suspects were publicly identified. The investigation remains ongoing.

If anyone knew Santiago, worked with him, or saw activity around East Lake Mead Boulevard and North McCarran Street that morning, please share what was seen with investigators.
