Las Vegas Bolsters New Year's Eve Security
- 6 years ago
Las Vegas is preparing for more than 300,000 people to descend on the Strip to celebrate New Year's Eve. Scores of local and federal officers will be there in the hopes of preventing another massacre. It's been three months since a gunman rained bullets on a country music festival in the city.
The New York Times reported that for the first time in the city's history, the Department of Homeland Security has given Las Vegas's New Year's Eve festivities its top special assessment rating.
