Metro Police have arrested three 18-year-old men in connection with the shooting death of a 50-year-old man found at a northwest valley house Monday, according to Metro Police.

Andrew Hall, Derek Balint and Stephon Jordan have been arrested and are expected to face counts of murder with a deadly weapon, robbery with a deadly weapon, burglary with a deadly weapon and conspiracy on each of the previous counts, police said.

Las Vegas resident Todd Tipton was found dead of a gunshot wound to the head about 6:20 p.m. Monday in the 3800 block of White Castle Street, near West Alexander Road and North El Capitan Way, officials said.

Tipton had been home alone and was later found by a family member, police said.

Detectives said his death may have occurred in a burglary, and they released photos of the three men and a woman described as persons of interest in the crime, police said.

Investigators spoke with the woman, and she is no longer a suspect, police said.
