After initial observations police say he is clearly the victim of a homicide.

The police say the child is a male and maybe white, Latin or Asian between the ages of 8 and 12 years old. He has dark black hair.

Police say if you know someone who is missing in that age range to please contact the LVMPD Homicide Unit at 702-828-3521 or crime stoppers.

The group was hiking the Mountain Springs Trailhead near State Route 160 somewhere between Las Vegas and Pahrump when they found the body at about 7:30 a.m., Las Vegas Police Lt. Ray Spencer told reporters.

How incredibly sad :( so young and all alone.... I wonder if he has been reported missing, assuming not as they've not been able to identify him.

From the link:

"... a group of hikers was in the area of Mountain Springs trail off State Route 160 -- the main roadway between Las Vegas and Pahrump -- when one of them went off the trail, according to the department.

Police say that person discovered the boy's body near the forest area.

Lt. Spencer described the boy as Hispanic around 4-feet, 11-inches tall and 123 pounds before sharing a photograph drawn by a sketch artist."

Forensic should be able to help with age, I think. There are certain teeth that grow at certain ages, for example.

Pinning down the age would be a big help - perhaps teachers have noticed students who have been missing, though I'm not sure when schools close there. They are still in session here.

I’m curious when they believe he was killed. Are we looking for a child who has been missing a few days or a few months?

Wow. If true he has sibling murdered as well.

Boy in the photo appears to have a broken wrist. Just a note, not sure if relevant to anything. Not seeing a missing person report on Eden Montes.

Eden does look incredibly like the drawing :( apart from the chin area, and they were quite specific that the chin was fuller on the poor boy found than it is in the drawing.

Just seen the update, it is Eden's 8 year old little brother and Eden is still missing :(

Good lookout. I never notice things like that. I did notice they were eating Sushi?

Two boys. Brothers. It's not right.
