Two women fatally shot in a triple slaying Tuesday night at a west valley apartment complex have been identified by the Clark County Coroner’s Office.

Las Vegas residents Veronica Caldwell, 33, and her daughter Yvonne Rose Reyes, 18, were found on a walkway outside an apartment in the 2200 block of South Fort Apache Road, officials said.

The identity of a 21-year-old man who also was shot to death has not yet been released, but Metro Police said he was Reyes’ boyfriend.

Officers were called about 10:15 p.m. to the apartment complex after reports of a domestic disturbance and gunshots, police said.

Caldwell’s 21-year-old husband apparently chased his wife, Reyes and the unidentified man from the apartment, shooting all three, police said.

He then returned to the apartment and was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police said.

One of the women was pronounced dead on scene, and the two other victims were transported to University Medical Center, where they died, police said.

The suspect was transported to University Medical Center and was last reported to be in extremely critical condition, police said.
