Police were called at about 3:45 a.m. Nov. 20 to Spring Valley Hospital Medical Center in response to a man suffering from a gunshot wound, police said Friday. Police did not initially know the location of the shooting, but later determined the man was shot in the 4700 block of South Decatur Boulevard.

The man was transferred to University Medical Center in critical condition on Nov. 20, the Metropolitan Police Department said.

The Clark County coroner’s office on Friday said that Bill Henderson, 31, died late Tuesday night at University Medical Center from complications of gunshot wounds. The office ruled his death a homicide.

The coroner’s office said the man was shot in a Home Depot parking lot. A Home Depot is located at 4750 S. Decatur Blvd., in the block where police said the shooting happened.

Metro homicide detectives have taken over the investigation into the shooting, police said.
