On July 31, 2017, 30-year-old Robert Dean Brown Jr was fatally shot in North Las Vegas near Deer Springs and Aviary ways in the Aliante community. Brown was on foot and described by witnesses as agitated before he approached a white Nissan truck and broke the driver’s side window, prompting a confrontation.

The truck’s 22-year-old driver fired at least one shot, striking Brown in the upper torso; Brown was taken to University Medical Center and the Clark County coroner confirmed the cause of death as a gunshot wound to the right chest. The driver and an adult female passenger in the vehicle were not injured. Police reported no known relationship between Brown and the driver and said witnesses suggested the shooting might have been self-defense. As of August 2017 no arrests had been made and the investigation remained open.

Does anyone in the area remember seeing that white Nissan or have information about the moments before the shooting?
