Downtown Las Vegas businesses brace for weekend protests

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Marco Lopez, co-owner of Juice Stars, told 8 News Now his business was vandalized earlier this week during the Las Vegas protest downtown. Anti-ICE expletives were spray-painted on his storefront, and he spent nearly two hours cleaning it up. 'At first I was like 'ugh really,' but I came in, grabbed a razor blade, spray bottle, and just had to sit there and scrape slowly,' Lopez said. He is now preparing his business for the protests planned this weekend. 'I mean we're gonna prep as best we can, bring all our stuff inside, get stuff put away, possibly just take everything money-wise, valuable out of here,' said Lopez. The owner also plans to monitor the store's security cameras, since the business will be closed during those hours. Other employees working at downtown businesses, who wanted to remain anonymous, told 8 News Now they are taking precautions. Many did not want to be named out of fear of retribution. 'The company we partnered with next door had to lock up their doors just as a precaution and for extra safety as well,' a woman told 8 News Now. She explained although they hope things won't get out of hand over the weekend, they are prepared to close their doors if it does. 'To close up early would impact our sales obviously, but we just want to make sure everyone's safe out there, especially our employees,' she said. The downtown protest is expected to take place at the federal courthouse tomorrow from 5-7 p.m. According to a press release, it is meant to be 'peaceful protests against the Trump administration.'

Las Vegas police ask public for footage of Strip shooting

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Several days after a man allegedly shot and killed a husband and wife in front of the Bellagio Fountains on the Las Vegas Strip as part of an online feud, police are asking anyone with video of the incident to come forward. Police are specifically asking for anyone with video of before and after the shooting, either from cell phones, tablets, vehicle dashcams, or business security systems in the area, according to a release. Anyone with video or information on this incident is urged to contact the LVMPD Homicide Section by phone at 702-828-3521, or by email at homicide@ To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers by phone at 702-385-5555, or on the Crime Stoppers website. The shooting was reported around 10:40 p.m. Sunday, when two Metro officers on routine patrol heard gunfire and ran toward the area where they discovered two people with gunshot wounds on the sidewalk, according to LVMPD Undersheriff Andrew Walsh. The suspect, Manuel Ruiz, 41, walked into a Henderson police station Monday morning and turned himself in. He is facing two counts of murder with the use of a deadly weapon, Las Vegas Metropolitan police said. Ruiz said he shot both in self-defense because he thought they were going to shoot him, according to an arrest report. Police said the victims, identified by the Clark County coroner as Rodney Finley, 44, and Tanisha Finley, 43, were not armed. Both suffered gunshot wounds to the head, the report said. 'I think it's probably garbage,' Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said of Ruiz's self-defense claim. He added that no weapons were found on or near the victims and 'the motivation is pretty clear.' The photo below shows the suspect and his clothing the night of the murder shortly before the shooting. The arrest report said Ruiz left the shooting scene, ditching his shirt, hat, and the gun before taking a rideshare only as far as New York, New York, because he didn't have money to pay. He then walked to a friend's house, who told him to turn himself in. After being taken into custody, Ruiz said he was approached by Finley's wife who was 'dancing in his face.' He said he saw Finley reach for his waistband and ask, 'What up cuz?' aggressively, and believed he was reaching for a firearm, so he shot in self-defense, documents said. He told police he fired toward Finley's torso, but when Finley continued to move, he aimed higher. He also admitted to shooting Finley's wife when he saw a 'shiny black object' he believed to be a gun, according to the report. Rodney, who also went by the online name Finny Da Legend, and Ruiz, known as streamer Sin City Manny, had argued online for several months over, among other things, copyright infringement. The two trolled each other, disagreed, and had lengthy conversations over the course of hours on a myriad of streams and sometimes different social media handles. A fellow YouTube content creator told police the feud started in 2023, the report said. On Thursday, Wolfson said prosecutors will consider seeking the death penalty for Ruiz. 'This is a case involving the death of two innocent people, and whenever we have a situation where two people are killed, needlessly, senselessly, it's always an option,' Wolfson said.
