A man was stabbed to death Friday morning in North Las Vegas.

Officers found the 43-year-old around 1 a.m. dead from multiple stab wounds on the 3700 block of East Owens Avenue, near North Pecos Road, according to a statement from the North Las Vegas Police Department.

Police said the man, who was homeless, got into a fight with another person before the stabbing. The other person ran off, and police did not provide a description.

The Clark County coroner’s office is expected to identify the man who was stabbed after his family is notified.

Anyone with information may call North Las Vegas police at 702-633-9111.
