Venetian spokeswoman Alyssa Anderson says Lewis worked at the property. She declined additional comment.

 

Police arrested 66-year-old bus driver Gregory Patterson on a felony driving under the influence charge after he told officers he had taken prescription medications and he failed field impairment tests.
