Report: Before mother was fatally shot, son told her to call police - Las Vegas Review-Journal
Tammy Meyers’ son tried to convince her to call police rather than going out to chase a car involved in a previous altercation, according to an arrest report. But Tammy Meyers told her 22-year-old son Brandon — who had retrieved a gun when his mother got home Feb. Just hours after Tammy Meyers went down, the same police report shows, accused trigger man Erich Nowsch told two friends he had fired 22 times outside the Meyers house on Mount Shasta Circle. One friend said 19-year-old Nowsch appeared excited and happy, according to the report. But in a police interview Tuesday — two days before he was arrested — Nowsch denied any involvement in the shooting of Tammy Meyers, the report said, saying he was in a recording studio when she was wounded. Nowsch was arrested Thursday in the 7700 block of Cherry River Drive, near the intersection of Cimarron Road and Alta Drive, around the block from the Meyers’ house. He faces one count of murder with a deadly weapon, three counts of assault with a deadly weapon and two counts of discharging a firearm from a vehicle. He was also in police custody from Sunday to Tuesday on a warrant from an unrelated case, the report said. The warrant was issued two years ago, when Nowsch was a juvenile, Metro spokesman Jesse Roybal said. Source: www.reviewjournal.com
