• It’s the second arson case at Trump International in three weeks. 28-year-old Jacob Dezsi tells police he wasn’t trying to make a political statement. In April, another 28-year-old was charged with arson at the hotel. Both fires started in restrooms.
• Public buildings may soon be required to include baby changing tables accessible to both men and women. The Nevada Senate passed the bill unanimously.
• And fidget spinners are being banned by some local schools. CCSD says the decision to ban the toys is made on a school-by-school basis. The devices emit a faint noise and could be distracting.
