A man was killed and a woman injured when a man shot them during an argument in the northeast Las Vegas Valley Thursday night, police said.

According to a Metropolitan Police Department news release, police received a report just after 9 p.m. of a shooting at a business in the 4900 block of East Craig Road, near North Nellis Boulevard.

Officers arrived to find the victims in a parking lot suffering from gunshot wounds.

The woman was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police said. The man was pronounced dead at the scene.
