Police: Las Vegas Strip Shooting Leads To Arrest In California

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Authorities say a man has been arrested in California following a shooting that critically injured one person and led to a lockdown of a Las Vegas Strip casino-hotel for several hours.

Las Vegas police said one person was hospitalized with a gunshot wound after the shooting about 11 p.m. Sunday on a Las Vegas Boulevard sidewalk.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports the Flamingo was locked down and people were prevented from using elevators and stairs while police investigated whether a suspect fled into the hotel.
