This is unfortunate. However, the area of town this was in, combined with the fact that the construction was proceeding so slow it looked like an abandoned construction project left over from our boom five years ago, clearly left it open for just about anyone.
I frequently pop in to the auction house near there for their Saturday auctions and had noticed this structure before, but had no idea what it was because it was pretty distant from all roads. It was completely unguarded and unfenced, from what I recall. Perhaps not the best area to leave something like this unprotected when construction was proceeding at a glacial pace.
Your link to the "new North Las Vegas city hall" instead links to an article that is for the LAS VEGAS city hall. Oops.
The first one looks just like Dubya! HAHA
Maybe, being tourists, they thought that "Flamingo" Road was really referring to the "Flaming O" and thus wanted to avoid what they thought was the gay part of town?
They would have doubly confused once they saw the color scheme of the Rio and verified their suspicions.

Can someone please enlighten me as to why Metro has a public policy of releasing this information anywhere between several days and several weeks after some type of criminal incident? This happened four days ago; this guy could be anywhere!
I've seen other times in the past where they release this type of information several weeks after a criminal incident has occurred. Why not release this type of information immediately after an incident? It just seems like a waste of time to me and it seems like Metro is trying to save face by being lazy early on in the investigation.
I'm not baiting or trolling here; is there seriously some type of argument in the "for" category as to why Metro (or whatever police department) holds this information back for an extensive amount of time prior to releasing it to the public?
