Reports are talking about the Paris Las Vegas Hotel and that most of the victims were from Montreal, Canada and they need interpreters as they speak French!

(excerpt)

The vehicle was in the northbound lanes of Las Vegas Boulevard near Bellagio Way when the vehicle drove up onto the sidewalk about 6:30 p.m. in front of the Paris Hotel & Casino and struck pedestrians, including 37 people who were taken to the hospital, Lt. Peter Boffelli said. One adult was killed, six were in critical condition, 26 injured and four were treated and released, he said.

“This is a huge tragedy that has happened on our Strip,” Boffelli said.

The crash in front of the Paris and Planet Hollywood hotels occurred on a busy stretch of the Las Vegas Strip across from the dancing water fountains of the Bellagio hotel-casino where visitors crowd sidewalks as they was walk from one casino to another. The Miss Universe pageant was being held nearby at the Planet Hollywood Las Vegas Resort & Casino at the time of the crash.

LOL . . . just like all the people at Luxor are Egyptians and everybody at Paradise Island is a pirate . . .

It’s a stretch of the strip where foot traffic is right next to the roadway. Nothing more.

It's also another way to 'attack Paris' without having to travel to Paris. Similarly the strike could have been done at the nearby New York New York.

Or the beauty contest could've been a factor in the chosen location. Go where the media is.
