Possible Serial Killer in Las Vegas

on November 7, 2011 in Unsubs by Brian Combs

Six random attacks on homeless people in Las Vegas, four of which were deadly, have investigators thinking there may be a serial killer at work in the area.

Ernestine Hall, who himself is homeless, said:

It’s a shame, and a lot of people out there are terrified. They are concerned about what’s happening and what’s going on.

The attacks stretch back almost six years. The first occurred in December 2005 when a panhandler was shot and killed while begging for spare change.

Similar attacks happened in 2007, 2008, 2010, and April of this year.

The most recent attack happened in September. A man was shot while sleeping at a bus stop. He survived, but four of the victims did not.

Anyone who knows anything about these cases is urged to contact Crime Stoppers of Nevada.
