A retired Connecticut State Police trooper was killed early Sunday morning after he was reportedly punched by a man on the Las Vegas Strip.
Thomas Driscoll, 57, of Chicopee, Mass., was walking on a pedestrian bridge between the Cromwell Hotel & Casino and Bally's around 4:30 a.m. when he and a woman companion walked past a group of men. One of the men, later identified as Brandon Marcus Leath, made a comment about the two, then ran toward the pair and down a set of stairs as they rode an escalator down from the bridge, according to a police report.
