LAS VEGAS, NV – A tragic stabbing incident has left a Las Vegas family in mourning after a man allegedly killed his grandfather in their home on Monday evening. Jordan Metbo, 28, now faces charges for the fatal attack.
The family had been concerned over Metbo’s behavior during the weekend, which led his grandfather to take away his gun for safety. However, this measure did not prevent the tragedy. According to authorities, Metbo used a knife to attack his grandfather while he was asleep.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department was alerted by a 911 call from a relative, who reported the violent act.

As the investigation continues, police are working to unravel the details surrounding the incident. The case highlights the unpredictability of family conflicts and their potential to escalate into violence.
Metbo’s court appearance on Tuesday signaled the beginning of the judicial process. The community remains shaken, seeking answers and justice for the tragic loss.
Authorities are calling on anyone with information to come forward, as the neighborhood grapples with the impact of the event and hopes for resolution.
