On Monday in Las Vegas, Victor Vondrasek faced new charges after a machete attack last week. One of the victims, a maintenance worker who was critically injured, died last Friday. The new charge against Vondrasek is murder, as per FOX5 Vegas.
Vondrasek, who was already facing charges of attempted murder, battery, and resisting a public officer, now has a murder charge added to his case. His next court appearance is scheduled for January 26. During the hearing, the prosecutor said an amended criminal complaint would include the new charge. Judge Eric Goodman presided over the proceedings, which were first reported by News3LV.
Last week in Las Vegas, a routine eviction turned violent when Vondrasek crashed through a glass door and attacked Deputy Sgt. Mark Ruesch and a maintenance worker with a machete. Ruesch was injured, and the maintenance worker died. Ruesch’s body camera was not on, so the attack was not recorded. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department is reviewing the use-of-force policies, and Vondrasek faces additional charges. The incident has also led to a review of eviction procedures, as mentioned by Hoodline.
