The Clark County coroner has identified the man who died after a shooting in Henderson on Saturday morning.

About 6:20 a.m., officers responded to the report of a shooting in the 1100 block of Pleasure Lane, near East Paradise Hills Drive and Interstate 515, Henderson police spokeswoman Michelle French said.

Officers found Lamar Dale Reid, 22, dead from a gunshot wound, she said.

Reid’s roommate, 28-year-old Henderson resident Michael Lanunziata, was arrested without incident on Saturday and faces one count of open murder, French said. He is being held at the Henderson Detention Center, police said.
