Cops raid suspected Chinese-run biolab in Las Vegas with thousands of vials labeled 'HIV' and 'malaria'
UK Daily Mail ^ | 02/03/2026 | STACY LIBERATORE

Federal and local authorities have uncovered what they allege was an illegal biological laboratory operating inside a Las Vegas home owned by a Chinese national.

Newly released footage from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department shows a dramatic hazmat response as agents hauled bags of medical tubing, vials and containers filled with unknown liquids from the suburban property.

During a press briefing on Monday, LVMPD Sheriff Kevin McMahill revealed investigators discovered a 'significant volume of material' stored in refrigerators and freezers throughout the home, including vials and containers holding liquids of varying colors and compositions.

Investigators also located 'pathogen-labeled containers' with labels such as 'dengue fever,' 'HIV,' and 'malaria,' the report said, along with 1,000 mice. There have been reports that other labels showed 'COVID' and 'Ebola.'

More than 1,000 samples were collected and sent for testing, according to Christopher Delzotto, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Las Vegas field office.

Authorities arrested 55-year-old Ori Solomon, identified as the property manager for the Sugar Springs Drive residence and a nearby home on Temple View. Both properties were searched as part of the investigation.

Delzotto said the initial search uncovered a bio-safety hood, bio-safety labeling, a centrifuge, multiple refrigerators, and gallon-sized containers filled with red-brown liquids, along with refrigerated vials containing unidentified substances.

Police confirmed the home is owned by Jia Bei Zhu, the same individual linked to a previous investigation into an alleged illegal biological laboratory discovered in Reedley, California, in 2023. Zhu has remained in custody since that case.

The California discovery later sparked a congressional investigation, which found the lab had allegedly received funding from Chinese banks and stored thousands of biological samples labeled as potential pathogens, including HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, COVID-19 and even Ebola.

As China starts to implode, I have to wonder if there is someone in Chinese Intelligence who is feeding us this stuff as a gesture of goodwill.

This is what Fauci liked about the Chinese working on COVID for us—they don't have boundaries to fetter anything that can be used on Americans.

Round up anybody even remotely involved.

Drag them out on the strip in front of the Bellagio and put a bullet in their heads.

Send chyna a bill for the bullets and the clean up.

Thread BUMP! Speaking of Fauci, how is he still alive and free. There should have been a bounty on the head of that POS. Crimes against humanity.

If Kamala and Walz got elected China would own us by now.

Walz loved China and they loved him.

Kamalas husband is a lawyer who specializes in helping Chinese companies do business here.

I can see characteristics in his face of what the ancient people probably looked like who crossed the Bering Land Bridge from Siberia and China to become the so called “Indians” in our Southwest and West later.

In a book about Ishi, the 1911 isolated Yahi tribe survivor, it said when he was introduced one by one to the white people at U. of California, Berkeley, he used the word for addressing a foreigner but for one who was Chinese he used the word for fellow of his people.

Interesting.

The homeowner, Zhu, is scheduled to go on trial in the 2023 case in April. His attorney, Anthony Capozzi, said Monday that his client has been in federal custody for three years.

‘He is not involved in any kind of biolab being conducted in a home in Las Vegas,’ Capozzi said. ‘What went on in that residence, we are unaware of.’


That’s our story and we are sticking to it...............

Fauci is not going to be arrested because IF he was Trump is guilty by association. He was the POTUS that ordered Operation Warpspeed to push the mass implementation of the Covid-19 vaccinations by Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson. When all we really needed was Ivermectin and Hydroxichloroncan like they were using in France, India and all of Africa.

We had an epidemic. Panic was being pushed. Trump had to do something. He fell into their trap. It worked. Millions of people are paying for it with their lives.

Trump was deceived by Fauci, Brix and the Big Pharma executives who all saw dollar signs.

“ Deport everyone from China now.”

Then China would be empty ?
And where would a billion Chinese go?

The lawyer continuing .. You see germs - bacteria, viruses, etc are very small. They’re easy to miss. My client just didn’t see them!
