The Clark County Coroner has identified the male victim as 24-year-old Alberto Sanchez-De La Torre from Las Vegas. 13 Action News sat down with his family Monday night.

"Didn't get a chance to see him again, give him a hug, nothing," said Alberto's sister, Jenny Sanchez-De La Torre.

Alberto was one of six siblings.

"He was like a dad for me," said brother Juan Sanchez-De La Torre, "talking nice to me, happy, loving with me."

Loved ones say Alberto had gone dancing with friends at a local nightclub when he was shot and killed. Police believe the suspect opened fire after words were exchanged with the victim.

"He's no troublemaker," said uncle Jose Garcia.

The 24-year-old's mom is asking anyone with information to come forward.

"It happened to Alberto this time," said Garcia, "... but he's going to do it again to somebody else."

GoFundMe has been set up for Alberto Sanchez-De La Torre. A fundraiser, including a car wash, music and food, is being held at Sellito Rojo, located at 3977 E. Vegas Valley Drive, at 2 p.m. Friday.
