The Clark County coroner’s office has identified a man found dead inside a trailer in a North Las Vegas parking lot early Sunday.
He was 31-year-old Eric Mosley, the coroner’s office said. He died of multiple gunshot wounds, and his death was ruled a homicide.
About 4:45 a.m. Sunday, police received reports of an injured person inside a trailer in a parking lot on the 2900 block of Las Vegas Boulevard North, west of Pecos Road, the North Las Vegas Police Department said.
Mosley was found inside the trailer suffering from gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
Investigators do not believe the shooting was a random act of violence, and no one had been arrested in connection with Mosley’s death as of Sunday afternoon, police said.
