Las Vegas Strip Closed- Abbey Winiger




SUMMARY- On Saturday evening there was a shooting on the Las Vegas Strip. The shooter was apprehended without struggle and brought to the attention of authorities immediately. The shooting occurred on a bus with one of the men only sustaining major injuries. The victims were on the bus for one hour while negotaiating terms were being worked out. They closed down a massive street area due to the shooting. The man sureendered and a SWAT vehicle showed up to see his handgun which he was possessing. At this time there is no information about the killer or the victims, although someone on the scene said it was not an act of terrorism.

ANALYSIS/SYNTHESIS- Before reading this article I had heard of the streets in Las Vegas closing but not the reason. This is so scary to think that maybe the shooter just choose to do this violent act randomly. Hopefully he will punished by the full extent of the law, and that the families and those affected are safe.
