A gunman in Las Vegas shot two men in random, unprovoked shootings, including the “thrill killing” of a sleeping homeless man, police said.

Noah Green, 21, was arrested Saturday on charges of open murder with the use of a deadly weapon and attempted murder in the July 13 death of a homeless man who was shot in the head and a 66-year-old man who was shot in the chest as he walked his dog two days later, Las Vegas police announced Monday.

Investigators told reporters they found videos of the two indiscriminate shootings on Green’s cellphone depicting the “absolutely disturbing” incidents from the shooter’s perspective, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

“We are confident in saying today that we believe that we have taken a very dangerous person off the streets,” Homicide Lt. Ray Spencer said. “I will tell you: I’ve been a police officer for 22 years. I lead the homicide section. The videos are absolutely disturbing.”

Spencer said a jogger found a man — later identified 48-year-old Brent Michael Lloyd — fatally shot on July 13. The shooting was captured on surveillance footage and investigators soon determined it was an unprovoked “thrill killing,” Spencer said.

No one witnessed the shooting, police said, prompting detectives to launch an “exhaustive investigation” based on the grainy surveillance video, Spencer said.

Two days later, a man walking his dog just 400 feet from where Lloyd was killed was shot in the chest by a man at “very close range,” police said, adding that the victim remained in critical condition Monday.

Investigators then connected both shootings and learned the suspect lived in a nearby apartment complex, the Las Vegas Sun reports.

Green, of Las Vegas, was later taken into custody Saturday as detectives caught him jaywalking and a 9 mm handgun wrapped in a paper bag was found in his pocket, Spencer said.

The videos were then discovered on Green’s cellphone after detectives got a search warrant, police said.

Green, who remained held without bail Tuesday at the Clark County Detention Center, is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday, online records show.
