🏜️ Gunfire at Valley of Fire
July 12, 2024 · Rob Kachelriess
Democrats, find yourself a presidential nominee you can look at the way this guy looks at Obama …
America’s favorite ex was courtside at the T-Mobile Arena as Team USA trounced Team Canada in an Olympics preview.
Meanwhile, Nevada’s role in the presidential election makes its way into today’s Friday news roundup. Have a listen 🇺🇲 [City Cast Las Vegas 🎧]
What's CITY Talking About?
🏜️ Shooting Closes Valley of Fire
A reminder for whoever needs to hear it: park rangers have guns. One of them at Valley of Fire shot and killed a visitor on Wednesday, although details are slim on what led to the confrontation. The state park remained closed throughout Thursday while police investigated and is expected to be back open for the weekend. [KVVU]
⛽ Controversial Gas Station Running on Empty
Sometimes a good protest works. Plans are changing after residents complained about a proposed gas station within 40 feet of homes (which is against the county rules btw). Instead, the homeowners get to put up with a drive-thru restaurant and oil change service. [KLAS]
- Yes, it’s possible to change what’s built in your neighborhood. [City Cast Las Vegas 🎧]
☀️ Neon Museum Limits Hours Due to Heat
In another sign it’s just too damn hot out there, the Neon Museum will be closed during daylight hours when the temperature exceeds 110 degrees. Nearly the entire exhibit of signs and marquees is outdoors. [Neon Museum]

The case is just one topic on today’s Friday news roundup, which also includes the latest on Nevada’s role in the presidential election and the Mirage’s cash “giveaway” ahead of next week’s closing. City Cast Las Vegas co-hosts Dayvid Figler and Sarah Lohman are joined by Andrew Kiraly of The List.
