Teenager killed in double shooting in North Las Vegas identified

The Clark County coroner’s office has identified a man shot and killed Friday morning in North Las Vegas.

He was 18-year-old Se’maj Holmes, the coroner’s office said. Holmes was found in a car with a woman, who also had been shot, after the vehicle had crashed into a home near Washburn Road and Goldfield Street, the North Las Vegas Police Department said.

Holmes and the woman, who has not been identified, were taken to University Medical Center. The woman was expected to survive, but Holmes died Saturday, the coroner’s office said.
