So, a bunch of pedestrians were mowed down a block from my work today....
In front of Ballys casino, on the Las Vegas strip, a car went onto the sidewalk and more than a dozen pedestrians were struck. One was killed and several were hospitalized. Apparently, some asshole decided to steal a car, and this is what happens. I got off work and the entire Strip was closed to traffic. I was fearful of getting nailed myself as I tried to navigate the traffic detouring along the narrow side streets.

3. I haven't had any local news (or any TV at all) on tonight
So, other than that article, which was current when I posted it, I'm afraid I don't know how those people are doing. I hope nobody else will die, at least. :(
