Christian Jewell Stephen Bracko, 35, was shot late on the night of December 19, 2017, at an apartment complex at 3644 South Fort Apache Road in Las Vegas, near Spring Mountain Road. Officers were called at 11:33 p.m. and found him on the ground between two buildings with a single gunshot wound to the chest; he died at the scene. Neighbors reported hearing two shots and seeing someone run from the area, and the Clark County coroner later identified Bracko as the victim.
Detectives said the shooter—possibly more than one—fled before police arrived, and as of the days immediately following the killing, no arrests had been announced. That night's breaking-news summaries likewise noted a homicide investigation near Fort Apache and Twain with no suspects identified. Public listings of gun-violence victims also recorded Bracko's death in Las Vegas on December 19, 2017.
