A device left in a casino parking garage exploded early Monday, killing a man who tried to pick it up off the top of his car, authorities said.

The device exploded shortly after 4 a.m. on the second floor of a parking garage behind the Luxor hotel-casino, said Officer Bill Cassell, a police spokesman. He declined to describe the device, but said initial reports that it was inside a backpack were wrong.

The blast was not a terrorist act but an apparent murder of a man who worked at a business inside the hotel, he said, adding that the case was being investigated as "a homicide with an unusual weapon."

No threat had been made against the Luxor, Cassell said.

"We believe the victim of this event was the intended target," Cassell said. He said another person who was with the man narrowly escaped injury.

Wow an interesting homicide method INDEED. Imagine YOU upon arriving at your parked car, find a "big gulp" that someone carelessly and without regard left on top of your car-Jerk! You go to remove it and place it in the trash. Just as you're picking it up you notice something tha

BOOM!

End of story.

I wonder who the guy was, someone important, someone with news or information that was to be released? Just speculation of course but it does seem professional of a 'hit'.

Well, apart form the gambling and overt ugly neon lights at least.
