As Las Vegas falls to the Negro Cancer = Police Officers fire at man pointing gun at tourists in front of Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas

An officer-involved shooting in front of the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas prompted cops to close down part of the city's main tourist area.

Police told KVVU that officers fired on an armed man around 7 p.m. Friday night at the tourist hotspot, where large crowds of Sin City visitors regularly watch an elaborate fountain show.

The man was reportedly waving his gun and pointing at tourists in front of the resort before he was confronted.

A video from the scene posted online showed the resort's water display being interrupted by the sound of two gunshots.
