The famous Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas strip was thrown into chaos this week when a domestic disturbance inside a room escalated into a hostage situation.
For more than five hours on 11 July, crisis negotiators, Las Vegas Police Department officers and a SWAT team attempted to breach the room on the 21st floor of the hotel where a woman was being held hostage, amid threats from her alleged captor that he “had a magazine full of rounds” and “would pull the trigger.”
