A man is expected to survive after he was shot Friday afternoon in the southeast Las Vegas Valley, where he went to sell an item he posted about online, police said.
Officers were called about 4 p.m. after report of the shooting on the 5900 block of Via Aquario Drive, near Tropicana Avenue and Jimmy Durante Boulevard, Metropolitan Police Department Lt.

When the man arrived in the area he got in an argument with two other men, Nogle said. At least one man then shot the victim, police said.
The man who was shot was hospitalized with survivable injuries. Further information about the shooting was not immediately available.
