Three teens arrested after 16-year-old killed in Las Vegas | Homicides

They then allegedly got back into their friend's car, telling her they would beat her up if she didn't drive, according to the June 13 arrest report. Las Vegas police tracked the case through Instagram direct messaging as well as surveillance video of the car and the three young men.

Robert Saulsberry, 17, and Doir Jenkins, 18, were booked into the Clark County Detention Center on June 26 on suspicion of one count each of murder, conspiracy to commit murder and robbery. Both attended Canyon Springs High School in North Las Vegas.

The 14-year-old boy, whose name has not been released, is in the Clark County Juvenile Center, records show.

The Metropolitan Police Department received a call at 10:45 a.m. on May 11 that a young man was bleeding at an address that was redacted from the arrest report provided to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The victim, Jovan Wright Bullock, was transported to University Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead 30 minutes later from a gunshot wound to the chest.

Officers used cellphone video taken by the woman who initially called police to identify a Toyota Camry that had made a U-turn on a street, which was redacted in the report, and spoke with the young women who had driven the alleged perpetrators to the scene.

Surveillance video also showed the three men walking north on Robin Street toward Goldhill Way. The young women told police they heard Saulsberry say he shot Bullock twice, the report said. Instagram messages showed an argument over a gun.

Jenkins had previously been booked into the Clark County Detention Center and was under house arrest at the time of the shooting, the report said.

Jenkins is scheduled to appear in court on July 9 and Saulsberry has a bail hearing scheduled for July 8.
