Blowtorch, Gunfire, and Tragedy in Las Vegas | Tucson News

A harrowing early Monday morning in Las Vegas turned deadly when police responded to a domestic disturbance that spiraled into a violent standoff. A woman called 911 after her boyfriend allegedly tried to set her on fire with a blowtorch and shot her. When officers arrived, the suspect opened fire, wounding one officer before barricading himself inside the home and attempting to ignite the structure. SWAT and negotiators took over, only to find a man and a young girl—both fatally shot—inside. The woman who called for help escaped with injuries. Authorities are still piecing together the relationships between the victims and the shooter, while neighbors described being jolted awake by the chaos, left shaken by the tragedy unfolding just blocks from their doors.
