少年在艺术节遭枪杀后，拉斯维加斯"第一周五"11 月场次很可能暂停检讨安保
据拉斯维加斯本地媒体 Las Vegas Focal 10 月 13 日报道，市长雪莉·伯克利周二表示，市中心艺术区每月举办的"第一周五"（First Friday）艺术节很可能暂停 11 月的场次，以便市政府官员与警方检讨安保方案。此前在 10 月 2 日的"第一周五"活动期间发生枪击，一名 15 岁少年中弹身亡。
伯克利是在拉斯维加斯会展中心举行的 IMEX 贸易展上接受采访时作上述表示的。她说，市政府正与拉斯维加斯大都会警察局、市公共安全局以及第一周五基金会商讨暂停事宜；目前没有宣布终止这一活动。她表示，这是一个非常好的活动，市政府不会将其取消，但必须确保它对所有人都是安全的。
据警方通报，10 月 2 日，艺术区活动现场两伙人发生打斗后爆发枪声；警方逮捕了一名 17 岁少年，指控其在涉及两个街头帮派的冲突中开枪，一名 15 岁少年在枪击中死亡。
伯克利说，暂停期间官员们正考虑多项可能的安保措施，并提到市政府应对弗里蒙特街治安问题的做法可作参考模式，但她没有详述具体方案，也没有说明艺术节何时恢复。这一每月聚会为市中心艺术区带来艺术家、摊贩与游客；伯克利表示，目标是保留这一活动，同时防止暴力事件重演。

Las Vegas' First Friday Festival Likely to Pause in November After Fatal Shooting of 15-Year-Old
Las Vegas' First Friday arts festival will likely skip its November gathering as city officials work on safety measures following a shooting that killed a 15-year-old, Mayor Shelley Berkley said Tuesday, according to Las Vegas Focal's October 13 report. Berkley discussed the matter during an interview at the IMEX trade show at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The city is discussing the pause with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, the city's Department of Public Safety and the First Friday Foundation, Berkley said. No end to the event has been announced. Berkley said the event is a fabulous one that the city is not ending, but that officials have to ensure it is safe for everybody.
Gunfire erupted Oct. 2 after a fight between two groups at the Arts District event. Police arrested a 17-year-old, alleging that he opened fire during an altercation involving two street gangs. A 15-year-old was killed.
Berkley said officials are considering several possible safety steps while First Friday is paused. She pointed to measures used to address crime on Fremont Street as a potential model, but did not detail a proposed plan or say when the festival might return. The monthly gathering brings artists, vendors and visitors to the downtown Arts District, and Berkley said the goal is to preserve the event while preventing violence.
