LAS VEGAS -- Metro Police are investigating a murder that happened late Wednesday night.
According to police, two men got into a fight just before 10 p.m. at a bus stop near Craig Road and Rancho Drive. One of the men pulled out a gun and shot the other. The 32-year-old victim was later pronounced dead. The 49-year-old suspect is in custody.
"All we know is there was some type of confrontation that became physical, then the shots were fired and we're investigating the specifics and details other than that," Lt. Bruce Miyama with Metro Police said.
Police were able to get there quickly because witnesses called police and a patrol car was nearby.
