It happened at about 8:30 p.m. near the high-rise hotel's front entrance, Las Vegas Metro Police Lt. Ray Steiber said.

There sure does seem to be a lot of these types of shootings lately. Very odd timing or convenient reporting.

I think that somewhere, somehow, all these shootings are being stacked, as more fodder for the anti-gun crowd, and the illiterate idiots that follow.

Except that in the WWW, there was a very close link between “Cletus, you did a bad thing” and “Stand still while I adjust your rope necktie”.
