Man charged with murder after fatal garage shooting

North Las Vegas Cops Department (Las Vegas Review-Journal).
A 22-year-old male was detained and charged with murder after he supposedly shot and killed a 37-year-old man at a North Las Vegas residence in February.

On Feb. 23, North Las Vegas cops responded to the 5800 block of Victory Point Street following a report of a shooting and discovered two adult guys suffering from gunshot wounds, according to a criminal problem filed in North Las Vegas Justice Court.

Shortly after shots were fired, a witness stated they got in the home's garage and saw Hickman holding a pistol near the victims, who were both laying on the ground. Hickman apparently remained at the home even after being told to leave, but ultimately got away upon hearing the noise of approaching police sirens, according to the problem.

Jaylen Neal, one of the victims determined by the Clark County coroner's office, later on passed away from his injuries at UMC.

Jermaine Hickman Jr. has actually been charged with open murder in the shooting, according to court records.

Hickman is due in court on April 25.
