VEGAS STRIP CLOSED AFTER STANDOFF WITH SHOOTER
Las Vegas Metro police said an armed man surrendered after a three- hour standoff on a two- story bus that closed the Vegas Strip on Saturday. Police said the man shot and killed one person and wounded another.
Police had evacuated the nearby Cosmopolitan hotel and casino floor shortly before 11 a. m. local time Saturday.
Police spokesman Larry Hadfield said it wasn’t a terrorism incident.
Earlier Saturday, three people wearing dress clothing and animal masks robbed a jewelry store inside the Bellagio hotel- casino complex, which is next door, police said.
