Willie Parker, 32, was fatally shot inside a car during the early morning hours of Sunday, April 23, 2017, in North Las Vegas. He was left on a roadway median in the 3100 block of East Tropical Parkway near North Pecos Road after the vehicle’s occupants failed to render aid or contact emergency services. A passerby found Parker and alerted authorities.
Investigators traced the case to a nearby home where Parker lived with roommate Jeffery Moore, 23. Moore was taken into custody less than two blocks from the scene. He gave multiple, conflicting accounts to police, at first saying the shooting was accidental and that he had no intent to harm Parker. Prosecutors say his conduct after the shooting contradicted that claim: he did not call 911, told other witnesses to leave, misled investigators, and admitted telling friends what to say. Bloody clothes were found in the washing machine at the shared residence. Moore was arrested on charges of murder, discharging a firearm within a vehicle, and destroying evidence.
Did anyone in the area witness the car or its occupants that night, or have information about events leading up to the shooting?
