Democrat Clark County official Robert Telles was arrested on Wednesday evening on suspicion of murder in connection with the fatal stabbing of Las Vegas Review-Journal reporter Jeff German.

Jeff German, 69, was found stabbed to death in front of his home Saturday morning.

Police officers on Wednesday were spotted at the home of Robert Telles, a county official that Jeff German had been reporting on recently.

Telles, a Democrat, lost his re-election bid in June's primary after Jeff German exposed the hostile work environment in the Democrat official's office.

Jeff German had also recently filed a public records request on emails and text messages between Telles and others in his office, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

Telles was not happy about Jeff German's investigative reporting and even lashed out at the journalist on Twitter in June.
