Ultra-Luxe shootout

The Ultra-Luxe shootout was a gun battle that took place on Wednesday, July 13, 2072, between a group of mobsters and the Las Vegas police force.

Background
The Charleston Herald reported the events of the shootout, which took place at the Ultra-Luxe Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. Police stormed the casino floor, engaging in a firefight with the mobsters. The newspaper stated that hundreds of bullets were fired, and the conflict resulted in all five mobsters' deaths as well as injuries sustained by 17 bystanders.

The newspaper stated that there were multiple conflicting reports from eyewitnesses as to what happened. In one account, a cashier reported the group of mobsters were on a winning steak when soldiers arrived, subsequently using a missile launcher to kill two of the individuals. Others claimed the conflict began due to sniper fire killing one of the mobsters. During the course of the violence, witnesses say that they saw the mobsters try to surrender on two occasions.

Private investigations into the event led some to question whether the deceased mobsters were actually missing soldiers, but due to injuries sustained, their identities could not be confirmed. The Las Vegas chief of police claimed it was a major victory for the city, declaring that "it's time for us to send a clear message that no one in Las Vegas is above the law."
