A dispute among multiple people outside a residence in northeast Las Vegas ended in gunfire early Saturday, killing one man and wounding a woman, fox5vegas.com reports.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officers were called to the scene after 2 a.m., in front of a home at the intersection of Walnut Star and Star Creek Bay lanes, near Lamb and Lake Mead boulevards. When officers arrived, they found a man and a woman suffering from gunshot wounds.
