A confrontation between neighbors in Las Vegas ended with the death of 39-year-old Joe Jr. Vasquez, also identified by the Clark County coroner as Jose Luis Vasquez. On May 16, 2017, police say Vasquez entered a neighbor’s apartment armed with a knife. The neighbor, who was awakened by Vasquez’s presence, shot him once in the upper chest. Officers who arrived found Vasquez deceased at an apartment complex on South Decatur Boulevard.

The coroner ruled the death a homicide. The Metropolitan Police Department opened an investigation focused on whether the shooting was justifiable self-defense. The neighbor was identified by police, but no immediate determination about charges was reported and there have been no public reports of arrests or filings.
