Police release video seeking Las Vegas casino worker's attackers

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Police released a videotape showing a casino employee being mauled by a group of youths near an entrance to a Las Vegas Strip resort parking garage, and issued a plea for help identifying the assailants.

A surveillance video of the 2:20 a.m. Saturday attack, released Monday, shows the man leaving a golf cart and being punched, hit with a belt or chain, beaten and kicked after he falls to the ground in a driveway at the MGM Grand hotel-casino.

The victim, whose name and age were not released, suffered a broken jaw and a broken collarbone, police said.

"This is truly egregious," Las Vegas police Capt. Dave O'Leary said, who said investigators think the group was leaving a nearby movie theater, the United Artists Showcase 8, when the attack occurred. O'Leary said police did not know whether the victim was a resort security guard.

I am sure the owners would love to have a talk with the assailants...

The Police better catch them real soon.

Were they hispanics? From what I saw I thought they were black.

Republican budget cuts were responsible for the actions of these poor, misguided souls who otherwise would have been in a social arts program (intended anti-pinko sarcasm).

You must have a better version of the video or maybe some inside knowledge of the attack. Are you in the same gang?

Used to be the Casinos had their own ways for dealing with this kind of thing.

Maybe they still do.

You're right. Congress must raise taxes on the rich white folks immediately!

Sounds like they were parking in the lot to go to the movies. I didn't know the casinos enforced parking restrictions, especially in such a large lot. Those security guys need to be able to defend themselves. They should also have security travel in pairs. I suspect the casinos can afford it.

"Looks like latino gangbangers"

The only thing I can be sure of at this point is that they are not Scandinavian gang bangers.

Europeans should voluntarily and willingly want to go home to their homeland, Europe, so that we can be completely free from Europeans.

We should be teaching the Europeans on our continent their proper shame.

The real border of these European squatters-illegals is at the Atlantic Ocean. Their homeland is Europe.

These European squatters-illegals have carved borders on our continent that deprive us of our collective ownership of our all of our land and all its wealth!

These are "White" people who are on our continent. Europeans can call themselves "Canadian" or "American" but their homeland is still Europe and they are still trespassing on our continent.

From this knowledge, justice should move to full reparations for our people.

Reply #4 pissed me off and was probably nothing but sarcasm. Yet for some reason, I found your comment hysterical. Must be me.

anyhoo. I saw the video. Girls were involved and I heard it was unprovoked. Maybe an MS13 initiation? Or maybe too tame for that.
