LAS VEGAS, NEVADA — A potentially dangerous situation unfolded at the Fashion Show Mall on the Las Vegas Strip when a man allegedly brandishing a knife was apprehended by mall security officers, assisted by an armed bystander, according to KLAS.
The suspect, 22-year-old Letrelle Calhoun, now faces multiple assault charges involving a deadly weapon.
On March 23, Las Vegas Metro Police were called to the scene after Calhoun reportedly threatened store employees with a knife.

An armed bystander reportedly intervened during the situation, helping to bring it under control.
