LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – FOX5 is getting new details about some bizarre incidents of vandalism at the home of Henderson veteran.
Henderson Police just arrested a suspect, 51-year-old Keith Duane Murray.
An arrest report details several instances of Murray allegedly splattering the Air Force veteran’s home with paint and feces. According to police, he threw a bucket of feces over the home’s wall and into the backyard, as well as throwing feces on other parts of the home.
The report says Murray splattered paint on several parts of the home during separate occasions. The arrest report says Murray poured motor oil on Utter’s driveway, threw engine parts onto his roof, damaging it, cut power wires to his air conditioning unit and tampered with the victim’s telephone landline box.
The department has not discussed a possible motive in the case. The veteran, Larry Utter, says he does not know the suspect and does not know why someone would vandalize his home.
Incidents span from Oct. 2023 to July 2024, according to the arrest report.

The arrest report indicates the homeowner showed video of the suspect to a homeless man in a nearby park. That person said he knew the suspect, was afraid of him, and that he lives in drainage tunnels near Eastgate Road.
Murray was booked into jail with a $50,000 bond.
