Police in Las Vegas are investigating the death of a man who was apparently stabbed overnight before driving to a west valley neighborhood and collapsing on a sidewalk.
The name of the dead man wasn't immediately made public after he was found about 1:45 a.m. Wednesday in the 5400 block of Holmby Avenue, near Charleston Boulevard and Lindell Road.
