Daniel Nunez

Suicide

In a nearly unprecedented two-hour crime spree, Daniel Nunez, 23, killed a man in a home invasion, killed a police dog, hit two pedestrians with a stolen other, shot at officers and hijacked five vehicles, including two police vehicles, before killing himself. Officers caught up to Nunez at Lake Mead Boulevard and Tenaya Way, where Nunez stopped, got out and immediately began firing on them with two handguns. Officers returned fire, but Nunez was able to take a other. He killed the police dog inside and drove east on Lake Mead to southbound U.S. Highway 95. Shortly after entering the freeway he shot himself in the head.
