My Sister was there, she was walking along the strip from cirque de ole and her husband wanted to make his way towards the Mandalay and the concert but she was tired and begging him to go back to the Tuscany Hotel.

She said she heard shots fired and then about five minutes of running towards the Tuscany she said she saw more police cars race down the strip than she ever knew existed.

A few years back, while I was driving on the 15, I saw a stream of at least 20 siren-blaring police cars doing 100 mph before entering an offramp to the strip. It was up there with any chase scene in the movies. I found out later they were responding to a shooting at the bellagio fountains.

The lvpd treat violence on the strip as if it were a pending bomb explosion. They cannot afford to lose the strip to violence. The success and safety of the strip pays their bills.

And now that the worst had happened on the strip, it may be a devastating blow to the future of vegas.
