Day 17: D.B. at the Gold Spike

Here’s something new to cross of the list of things to see and do in Las Vegas.

[X] See a dead body on the sidewalk.

At least that’s what I think it was. I didn’t stop to ask the cops.

It’s definitely person-shaped.

I drove past close enough to see a nose-shaped bump at the other end of the sheet.

Because I’m only human, I went round the block three more times trying to get a better look. It didn’t really help, but they didn’t seem to be in a hurry to move it.

One seven-out too many?

Given the distance from the nearest tall building, I think we can rule out it being a jumper.

So what happened? I guess we’ll never know.

But is it normal to leave a body warming up on the kerbside with just a bit of yellow tape and a bedsheet to try to keep it out of public view?  It didn’t work.
