LAS VEGAS (KLAS) -- A 17-year-old is facing charges including murder in the shooting death of another teen in May. Witnesses told police the shooting had to do with an argument over a gun, according to police documents.

Robert Saulsberry, who is certified as an adult, is one of three teens arrested in the killing of 16-year-old Jovan Wright Bullock, who died from a gunshot wound to the chest on May 11. Bullock was shot in front of his home in the 2300 block of Goldhill Way near Vegas Drive and MLK Boulevard, police said.

Aside from Saulsberry, Doir Jenkins, 18, and a 14-year-old boy were also arrested in the case more than six weeks after the deadly shooting.

Documents said investigators examined surveillance videos from the neighborhood showing the three teens walking toward Goldhill Way as well as a license plate from a car seen in the neighborhood at the time of the shooting. Between that information, social media postings, and witness interviews, and an anonymous tip, police said they were able to link the three teens to the shooting.
