Arrest made in deadly driveway car theft near Glenn Davis Drive
Las Vegas police have arrested a suspect in the death of a man who was run down while trying to stop his own vehicle from being stolen in the east valley earlier this week. (Our original Nov. 10 report.)
According to police, the call came in around 11:33 a.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 10, for a vehicle that had hit a pedestrian near South Glenn Davis Drive and Dennis Way, in the area of Harmon Avenue and Nellis Boulevard. Detectives say the man saw his vehicle being taken from his driveway, went outside and stood in front of it. The driver accelerated, struck him and drove off. Officers found him injured in the road and gave aid, but he died at the scene.
The LVMPD Homicide Section took over the case. Patrol officers located and arrested the suspect, a 28-year-old man, on Friday, Nov. 13. With help from the FBI, he was charged federally with carjacking resulting in death and booked into the Henderson Detention Center. The Clark County Coroner’s Office will release the victim’s name and the cause and manner of death.

What it means for locals and visitors
- If someone is stealing your car, let it go. Police consistently advise against confronting a thief or stepping in front of a moving vehicle. Get to safety, call 911 and give a description and direction of travel. A car can be replaced; Tuesday’s case shows how quickly these confrontations turn deadly.
- Make your car a harder target. Keep keys and fobs inside and away from the door, don’t leave a car running unattended in the driveway, and use a steering lock or tracker if you have one.
- Avoid active police scenes. If you live near Christy Lane and Judson Avenue, follow officers’ instructions and expect a police presence until the standoff is over. Don’t drive in to watch.
- Heading to the UNLV area? Maryland Parkway near Flamingo is a busy corridor. When police close it, Eastern Avenue and Swenson Street are the usual alternates.
- Report non-emergencies to LVMPD at 311 or 702-828-3111; call 911 for anything in progress.
