The 19-year-old guy accused of killing a Las Vegas lady after a street
rage occurrence is due in court Monday. Meanwhile, his lawyer is
questioning the version of events given by cops and the victim’s family.
Erich Milton Nowsch is charged with murder, attempted murder, assault
and firing a gun from a car in the February 12 death of Tammy Meyers,
44. Police say Nowsch shot Meyers in front of her home after a
confrontation while driving. According to police, the occurrence began
when Meyers was giving her daughter a driving lesson at a school parking
lot when “a silver four door car sped up behind them and pulled along
the driver’s side of the car.” After the daughter honked the horn, the
other car raced ahead and blocked their path, and a guy got out of the
car threatening them. Meyers after went looking for the car with her
22-year-old son, who was armed with a 9 mm pistol, reportedly police.
After finding the car, they began following it. The driver stopped, and
the passenger began firing at the Meyerses, reportedly police. Meyers
drove home, yet the other car followed and the occupant opened fire on
them in front of their house, reportedly police. Meyers was struck in
the head and died two days later. But Nowsch’s attorney, Conrad Claus,
asserted he questions whether the alleged street rage occurrence between
Meyers and Nowsch took place and has doubts about the family’s account
of what happened. He asserted accounts of Nowsch’s reported discussions
of the shootings with friends do not appear to be consistent with the
street rage claim. He moreover questioned the family’s initial
description of the shooting suspect. Meyers’ daughter described the
driver who threatened them as being 6 feet tall. Nowsch is much shorter.
