Black Lives Matter members gathered and protested Sunday evening on the Strip.
About 7 p.m., 30 protesters gathered on Las Vegas Boulevard South near the MGM Grand and walked over the pedestrian bridge to the New York-New York, Metro officer Jeff Goodwin said.
They marched on the Strip and on pedestrian bridges, he said.
Protesters came together to demonstrate in regard to a January officer-involved shooting, he said. The small group of demonstrators protested for almost two hours.
