A person was taken into custody after a man and woman were fatally shot Friday morning in a Henderson neighborhood near where a woman was shot and killed the day before.

A caller told police they heard gunshots around 7 a.m. in the 1000 block of Center Street, near East Lake Mead Parkway and East Warm Springs Road, and saw someone run to a vehicle before driving away, Henderson Police Department Capt. Haven Tillmon told reporters during a briefing near the scene.

Officers found two people, a man and woman both in their 30s, dead from gunshot wounds, Tillmon said. Late Friday morning, police had several units of the nearby Cascade apartment complex taped off.

As officers responded to the shooting, Tillmon said, the vehicle that fled the complex crashed near Lake Mead Parkway and Lake Las Vegas Parkway. Police responded to the crash and took one person into custody, Tillmon said.

Tillmon declined to provide a description of the person taken into custody.…
