Victims of a quick series of stabbings on the Las Vegas Strip described the shock and horror of the unexpected attack on a group of showgirls and others outside a casino that left two people dead and six injured. Police arrested Yoni Barrios, 32, after a short chase blocks from where they say he attacked four showgirls and ended up stabbing eight people on Thursday. An arrest report released Friday said Barrios told police some of the victims had laughed at him and he "let the anger out." Prosecutors say he’ll be charged with two counts of murder and six counts of attempted murder.
"I couldn’t believe that this was happening to me," said Victoria Caytano, one of the showgirl impersonators who was released from the hospital Friday after she was treated for a stab wound.
