LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The suspect in a deadly valley crime spree that spanned multiple jurisdictions could face the death penalty.
We’ve learned that a death review committee will determine if Aerion Warmsley could face capital punishment.
Warmsley faces six federal charges and nearly 30 state and local charges related to a series of incidents in March.
Police say the violent rampage began with the shooting death of 23-year-old Na’Onche Obsborne at the Aliante Hotel and Casino.
Authorities say he then fled and committed multiple carjackings and caused several crashes, leaving at least two more people injured.
