Homicide in Sparks

Sparks Police say a fatal shooting earlier this month was justified.

Officers responded to the parking garage at the Nugget just before 6 a.m. on April 6th and found a man, later identified as Vincent Wilks shot dead.

After investigating, detectives say Nicholas Galyon shot Wilks after he pointed a gun at him during a drug deal.

Police say Galyon was not involved in the deal but had driven someone to the parking garage who was involved.

That person left before the shooting.
