However, Strauss\u2019s weird behaviour did not stop there as he was later <strong>accused of luring an 8 year old boy to his room<\/strong> who was saved just in time as his parents showed up. Those actions got Strauss banned from the Rio and caused him to take to Twitter to spew out a lot of venom and hate.<\/p>\n<p>His tweets included <strong>threatening to destroy the casino that threw him out, encouraging people to keep killing children and another one where he threatened to commit suicide<\/strong>. Las Vegas police take all threats seriously especially after the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/storyline\/las-vegas-shooting\/las-vegas-police-investigating-shooting-mandalay-bay-n806461\">Mandalay Bay shootings in 2017<\/a> which turned out to be the most deadly shooting in US history.<\/p>\n<center>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Shootings are taking place all over Las Vegas.
