Las Vegas Woman Arrested in Connection with Fatal Drug Deal

An Indianapolis woman, Jasmine Bowen, 28, was arrested in Las Vegas on Friday after a monthslong investigation concluded that she had dealt drugs that led to a fatal overdose in 2024.

The investigation began when Trey Williams, 31, was found dead inside a home in the 10000 block of Snowdrop Way on March 15, 2024. An autopsy revealed that his cause of death was an acute overdose.

After months of investigation, a warrant for Bowen's arrest was filed in Marion County on Thursday. On Friday, police officers in Las Vegas located her driving a vehicle without a license plate and conducted a traffic stop.

Bowen was taken into custody due to her active warrant and is currently being held in jail in Las Vegas. She will soon be extradited to Indianapolis, where she faces charges of dealing in a controlled substance resulting in death and dealing narcotics.

This arrest marks the seventh dealing resulting in death arrest made by the IMPD Overdose Death Task Force this year.
