A man is behind bars after he allegedly shot his next-door neighbor to death in Las Vegas after the victim pulled out his genitals during an argument, according to police.
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officers responded just after 7 p.m. Monday to a shooting in the 2200 block of Starline Meadows Place. Officers arrived to find a man suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Medical personnel pronounced the man, later identified by the Clark County Coroner as 47-year-old Joe Moreno, dead on scene.
Cops arrested the alleged shooter, 32-year-old Eddi Moreno (no relation), on an open murder charge. Detectives said Eddi Moreno shot Joe Moreno to death after an argument. Local CBS affiliate KLAS obtained court documents that said investigators recovered five casings in the area of the shooting. Joe Moreno had been locked out of his house after a fight earlier in the day. Eddi Moreno returned home to find his neighbor “pacing back and forth” outside, the documents reportedly stated.
The witness with Eddi Moreno reportedly said Joe Moreno was upset and indiscernibly yelling at them. Eddi Moreno reportedly grabbed a gun from his backpack and accused Joe Moreno of breaking into his home, the documents reportedly said. That’s when Joe Moreno reportedly stood on a boulder and “pulled his penis and scrotum out and began thrusting” toward Eddi Moreno.
A doorbell camera reportedly captured some of the argument between the two neighbors.
Eddi Moreno: You’re going to get [expletive] up right here.
Joe Moreno: [Goddamn], you’re going to kill me.
Eddi Moreno: I don’t give a [expletive], I am going to murder you, come right here. I’m a murder you blood.
Joe Moreno: Who you going to murder?
Eddi Moreno: You.
Eddi Moreno allegedly fired several shots, hitting Joe Moreno.
“That’s what he gets. He’s not going to do that in front of my kids. Are you crazy?” documents reportedly said.
Eddi Moreno claimed he did not know his neighbor before the shooting but the victim called the suspect by his name, KLAS reported. The suspect is at the Clark County Jail without bond.
