Despite the recent attacks. nats elvis interacting with tourists mark rumpler has lived and worked right on the strip for more than a decade now. Ill tell you what, i keep an eye out on every, cause we have tourists and stuff, i watch a lot, and i have to say our police in the city are probably as good as any police ive ever seen. Theyre everywhere and theyre really keeping an eye on stuff. Its why hes confident the it comes to terrorism. One day last summer a man attacked the people, the tourists with a knife. And i helped to stop him. The police were here in one minute. And i swear its because of the surveillance. And that suveillance is second to none. Theres barely an inch of the city that the cameras dont capture. But. Police want citizens to be on alert as well. What does a terrorist look like . What does a criminal look like . There really is no picture for that, its based on their behavior and the things that they do prior to the act and of course after the fact. We run down every lead to the ground to determine wh there are additional things the police or the government can do to prevent a terrorist act. They say. Look out for people who are suspiciously filming things, asking specific security questions, and testing security limits, my first time here and i felt a little bit worried, but when i arrive i felt very, how can i say secure . Paloma pereiera was a little worried traveling to las recent attacks on our country. But as soon as she arrived. That fear vanished. The police, theyre on every side of the road, the city, i just felt very. nods . And to the cities that were recently attacked . They have to be really strong and have faith and i hope everything will be okay, i pray for them. Our local police havent made any changes since the attacks this past weekend. But just a reminder. We do have a joint terrorist task force here in las vegas. Theyre always working to stay one step ahead of any possible attacks.
