Man Arrested For Firing On Security Outside Las Vegas Lounge

A man has been arrested after police say he opened fire on security guards outside a Las Vegas hookah lounge.

 

Authorities say an altercation erupted between two groups at the Passions Hookah Lounge Bar around 3:30 a.m. Monday.

 

Security guards tried to disperse the crowd with pepper spray. Police say that's when a vehicle drove up and someone shot one round at the guards, who returned fire.

 

The driver fled but police located the car a short time later. Officers were able to take the suspect into custody and found a handgun in the car. No one at the lounge was injured.
