“About an hour prior that same person was observed on surveillance now that we’ve backtracked the video, walking into the property, so we don’t believe he was a guest,” says Lt. Ray Spencer, Las Vegas Police.
Lt. Spencer says despite recent violent incidents in and around Las Vegas hotels and casinos recently, guests are in good hands.
“They have an exceptional security force, especially here from watching the video of how quickly they engaged an armed suspect,” says Spencer.
