Las Vegas police are investigating after an officer fatally shot a 43-year-old father who had called 911 for help during a home break-in. Durham reported that he was inside the house with his 15-year-old daughter and he was going to lock himself in a bathroom, Koren told reporters Thursday. Boudreaux was arrested during the incident, Koren said. She appears to have had some relationship with Durham, Koren said, but police provided no clarity as to what that relationship might be. The officer’s use of force is being reviewed using the standard set by the Supreme Court’s decision in Graham v. Connor, Koren told reporters.

New York CNN —The Mirage Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip is closing Wednesday, ending 34 years in business. It will reopen in 2027 as Hard Rock Las Vegas, with a soaring 700-foot-tall hotel tower in the shape of a guitar, similar to its Florida property. Architects told CNN affiliate KSNV-TV that the tropical design created by Wynn was meant to resemble an oasis in the chaotic Las Vegas Strip. MGM Resorts bought the Mirage from Wynn in 2000 and sold it in 2022 for more than $1 billion to Hard Rock International. It’s the second time Hard Rock will have a presence in Las Vegas, with the brand previously owning the now-Virgin Hotel off the Strip.

Read previewThe man who flung himself over a bench to violently attack a Nevada judge told police officers afterward that he was having a bad day, according to an arrest report obtained by local NBC affiliate KSNV. In the scuffle, one officer tripped, dislocated his shoulder, and cut his head in an injury that required 25 stitches, KSNV reported, citing the arrest documents. In those documents, Holthus told officers that a "big, strong and angry" Redden slammed her head into the wall behind her bench, struck her multiple times, and pulled out her hair. Officers later reported that Redden told them — unprompted — that he had a bad day and had attempted to kill the judge, KSNV reported, citing the arrest report. Holthus, who returned to work the day after the assault, has ordered Redden to re-appear in court "by any and all means necessary," local CBS affiliate KLAS reported, citing court documents.
