What's CITY Talking About?
🏜️ Grand Canyon Vacation Turns Deadly
A Vegas-based Grand Canyon tour company is being sued by the family of a 66-year-old man who died of heat stress while on a trip to the Arizona landmark. The plaintiffs say the man was stuck with 39 other people on a tour bus that broke down in “intolerable conditions.” [Las Vegas Review-Journal]
🐴 Wild Horses at Risk in Big Beautiful Bill
If Nevada horses get eaten overseas, you have President Trump to thank. Language in the “Big Beautiful Bill” making its way through Congress cuts funding to help manage wild horses and removes protections that keep mustangs from being shipped to foreign slaughterhouses. [KLAS]
👮 Fake Cop Attemps Scam
A Las Vegas man found himself on the phone with someone claiming to be a Clark County sheriff’s deputy — impersonating a real officer and even name-dropping a real judge. The phony cop was seeking payment at a coin kiosk after warning of an unpaid citation and looming court date, which turned out to be pure fiction. [KVVU]
🔌 Help for the Unemployed On Hold
Anyone seeking unemployment benefits in Nevada will have to wait a week for services. Nevada’s unemployment website is offline for scheduled maintenance through July 7. [KSNV]
