A big oops by Metro police.
From the LVRJ: The victim of Las Vegas police’s 51st homicide investigation was not as dead as police said last week.
When Metro released information about a shooting that occurred in the central valley Friday night, they wrote that the identity of the victim, as well as the cause and manner of death, would be released by the Clark County coroner’s office.
The coroner’s office was not aware of the case over the weekend. The reason: He wasn’t dead.
Police found the man shot in the head lying between two vehicles. Metro spokesman Jesse Roybal said the man was expected to die, so information provided to news media was written as if he had. http://www.reviewjournal.com/news/las-vegas-police-friday-shooting-victim-wasn-t-dead-afterall
More big government incompetence?
