The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department in Clark County, Nevada, issued an update on November 14 in the case of a man fatally struck while trying to stop his vehicle from being stolen: the suspect, 28-year-old Treyvon Taylor, has been taken into custody and faces a federal charge of carjacking resulting in death.
According to the department, on November 10 at approximately 11:33 a.m., officers responded to a vehicle-versus-pedestrian collision near South Glenn Davis Drive and Dennis Way. The victim had observed his vehicle being stolen from his driveway, exited his house and stood in front of the vehicle to stop the theft; the vehicle accelerated forward, striking him before fleeing the scene. He was pronounced deceased at the scene, and investigators determined the driver deliberately hit the pedestrian, ruling the death a homicide.
In its update, the department said Taylor was identified as the suspect, was located and taken into custody on November 13 by patrol officers with the assistance of the FBI, and was booked into the Henderson Detention Center on the federal carjacking resulting in death charge.
