A man and woman were fatally shot late Friday after an apparent confrontation at a northwest valley apartment complex, according to Metro Police.

Officers received a report of a shooting about 10:15 p.m. in the 1900 block of Cindysue Street, near Lake Mead Boulevard and Simmons Street, Metro said in a news release.

The victims were suffering from gunshot wounds and pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

Homicide detectives believe the victims were inside the apartment when two unidentified males knocked on the door, police said. The woman answered the door, and an argument ensued between her and the suspects.

The argument eventually escalated when the male victim and one of the suspects got into a physical confrontation, police said. During the struggle, the suspect pulled out a firearm and shot the victims.

The suspects then fled the area, police said. A description of the suspects was not provided.

The victims will be identified by the Clark County Coroner’s Office, police said.
