Las Vegas police officer draws Taser in altercation with street vendor near Strip
Footage captured by a Las Vegas Metropolitan police officer's body camera reveals an altercation with a street vendor near the iconic Welcome to Las Vegas sign last weekend. The LVMPD shared a segment of the officer's video, which contains explicit language, on August 7 through a social media post. In a sequence of three posts, the department clarified that the officer had conversed with the vendor the previous day to remind them of the illegality of operating without a license. Despite a pending bill that expands legalization for street vendors in Las Vegas, it has not been enacted yet.
The video depicts the vendor shoving the officer, causing him to fall to the ground. This prompts the officer to draw his Taser. Although the vendor seen in the video was apprehended by the police, no further details were provided. The police's social media updates also mentioned their intention to collaborate with the proponents of SB92 to involve the community in educating everyone about the forthcoming implementation of this new law.
Clark County also issued a statement regarding the legal status of street vendors:
Even though the Governor has signed the legislation, it's important to emphasize that street vendors are currently prohibited from operating within Clark County. SB92 necessitates the establishment of a licensing process, but the County must first pass an ordinance to lay the groundwork for this licensing process. At present, there's no existing path to obtaining a license. We will be sharing information with the public in the coming months.
Over the next year, Clark County is committed to working diligently to formulate the necessary licensing and regulations to support street vendors. This endeavor will be conducted in close collaboration with the health district and state authorities to ensure the viability of these businesses in a safe and accountable manner. Spokesperson for Clark County, August 7th.
