On April 24, 2016, a fatal shooting at Liberty Village Apartments in the 3500 block of Dromedary Way, near North Nellis Boulevard and East Cheyenne Avenue in Las Vegas, left 27-year-old Damion Dwain Thomas of Pasadena, California dead from multiple gunshot wounds. The shooting happened about 2 p.m. after a confrontation between two groups escalated into a volley of gunfire; witnesses reported hearing roughly 10–12 shots and saw two men running through the complex with a gun.

Metro investigators said the fight began as a physical altercation and that the incident may have been related to a transaction gone bad, possibly involving firearms or narcotics. Three other people were shot, including 21-year-old Tevin Alhashemi, who was treated for a leg wound and later arrested on a weapons-possession charge because he was a prohibited person. Police recovered at least four guns, along with marijuana and pills, and reviewed surveillance video; one suspect was described as a Black male with a long dreadlock ponytail who fled in a silver pickup truck. No arrest in Thomas’s murder had been announced.

Did anyone in the area see the silver pickup truck or recognize the suspect with the long dreadlocks?
