Las Vegas man
charged with murder
A Las Vegas man was charged with murder Saturday in connection with the stabbing death of a man at a mobile home park.
Las Vegas police Sgt. Kevin Manning said Tony Burriloa, 39, was arrested at his home at 6 a.m. Burriloa was charged in the Friday death of a 38-year-old man whose name has not been released.
The victim was stabbed during a fight at 8 p.m. Friday at the Desert Paradise Mobile Home Park, 4070 Las Vegas Blvd. North, near the intersection of Craig Road and Nellis Boulevard. Manning said police and paramedics found the victim dead in the middle of the boulevard.
Burriloa was taken to University Medical Center for treatment of a cut. After he was treated, he was booked at the Clark County Detention Center. Bond had not been set by Saturday afternoon.
Driver dies after
being thrown from car
A man was killed Friday night when a car he was driving overturned at Lake Mead National Recreational Area.
National Park Service spokeswoman Karen Whitney said the victim had no identification on him.
She said the man was speeding west on state Route 167, the North Shore Road, at 10:40 p.m. when he missed a turn near the Callville Bay access road. The car rolled over, and the driver was thrown from the vehicle. His body was found at the bottom of an embankment about 25 feet from the road.
Alert neighbor sounds
alarm, saves teen-ager
A Las Vegas teen escaped serious injury Saturday when a neighbor alerted her to a fire in her parents' mobile home.
Las Vegas Fire Department spokesman Timothy Szymanski said the fire started at 4:12 a.m. in the home at Ballerina Sunrise Mobile Home Park, 839 Lamb Blvd., near Washington Avenue.
Szymanski said a neighbor who saw flames rising from the roof knocked on the door of the home.
Szymanski said the cause of the fire is suspicious, and Fire Department investigators are trying to determine if arson is involved. The blaze is the third at the mobile home in the past few months. The two previous fires, which caused minor damage, were the result of arson, Szymanski said.
