LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Ori Solomon, the property manager arrested in connection with an illegal biolab at a Las Vegas short-term rental, is no longer facing federal charges.
Channel 13 learned that Solomon's federal charges were dismissed without prejudice; however, he still faces a criminal charge in Clark County for the improper disposal of hazardous waste.
This all stems from an investigation after local and federal officials discovered what has been called an illegal biological lab inside a home he managed near Washington Avenue and Hollywood Boulevard.
Solomon's federal charges came after authorities found multiple firearms at his residence during a search on Jan. 31, 2026. An Israeli citizen in the U.S. on a non-immigrant visa, Solomon is not allowed to possess firearms. Prosecutors say multiple guns were seized from his home, according to an affidavit obtained by Channel 13.
The owner of the property where the suspected lab was found, Jia Bei Zhu, was recently found guilty of fraudulently selling more than a million COVID tests for nearly $4 million through his Fresno-based company Universal Meditech Inc.
As of this report, Solomon is due back in Las Vegas Justice Court on June 4.
Will isn’t that convenient.
With whom is he connected?

Either that or he provided important information in return for having the charges dropped.
Was he an absentee landlord and the guns and bio weapons were the Chinese’s? Or vice versa? This reporting is useless….
Channel 13 can’t even do enough investigative reporting to get a copy of the court ruling?!
Chyna?
Move on...
Nothing suspicious here...
Everyone has the right to possess illegal weapons and a bio-weapons lab...
He is not an US citizen.
He is not allowed to have guns.
They found guns in his house and was arrested.
And magically the charges were dropped anyways.
He must have important friends somewhere in the system.
Based on the name I don’t think you are supposed to say the answer out loud
Charges dropped? I’m shocked!
Was it his gun, or was it the chinaman’s? The article doesn’t even say!
The federal charges should NOT have been dropped.
The Israeli dude only had gun violations. He doesn’t even own the so-called “biolab,” a suspicious Chinese entity does. But that didn’t stop “MOSSAD BIOLAB!” nonsense on X for months.
(This is the same interim attorney, mind you, whose authority to serve as US Attorney for Nevada is only de facto, as she has not been confirmed by the Senate, and the interim designations utilized by the Trump Admin to keep her serving without confirmation are legally questionable at best.)
