Police Seek Suspect In Double Homicide At Las Vegas Hotel

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department is looking for a man it believes killed two people inside a Circus Circus Hotel room.

 

KSNV-TV reports police say the suspect is a light-skinned black male, 25-30 years of age, with a tattoo just below the neckline.

 

Officers on Friday were called on a welfare check after Khoung Ba Le Nguyen and Sang Boi Nghia did not show up for a tour to the Grand Canyon.

 

When security entered the hotel room, they found the couple dead. Each had multiple stab wounds.

 

Nguyen and Nghia were Vietnamese tourists, part of a group that came from Los Angeles.

 

The Circus Circus Hotel is offering a $10,000 reward for information that leads to the identification and arrest of the suspect responsible for this crime.
