Las Vegas police are investigating a fatal stabbing in the central valley Sunday evening.

A man was killed at the Indian Hills Apartments, 4550 W. Sahara Ave., after he confronted the driver of a car for going fast through the complex where kids were playing, according to Metropolitan Police Department Homicide Lt. Ray Spencer.

The two men got into a fight after the driver got out of the car, Spencer said at the scene. The driver stabbed the man, got back into his car and drove away.
