LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police are looking for three suspects they believe were involved in the death of a man east of downtown Las Vegas.

Authorities say they responded to reports that a man had been shot at about 11 p.m. Wednesday. They say they found the man dead near the sidewalk at Eastern Avenue and Fremont Street.

Detectives say it appears three male suspects approached the man when he was shot and then fled the scene.

The suspects are described as males who are about 20 years old. Police say one of them was seen riding away on a bicycle.

Authorities have not yet released the name of the man who was killed.
