On January 23, 2016, 23-year-old Arthur Earl Cowell of Las Vegas was killed in a drive-by shooting in northeast Las Vegas. Cowell was riding his bicycle eastbound on Owens Avenue about 4:20 a.m. when occupants of a newer model dark pickup truck pulled alongside and fired multiple rounds, striking him several times. He staggered into the parking lot of the Alpha Gardens Apartments at 1695 Mary Jane Drive and collapsed; he was taken to University Medical Center Trauma and pronounced dead.

The suspect vehicle was described as a 2014 or 2015 full-size dark Chevrolet Silverado or GMC Sierra. It was last seen turning from Owens Avenue onto northbound Mary Jane Drive and then heading eastbound on Stanley Avenue. No arrests or identified suspects have been reported and the investigation remains open.
