Lakesisha N. Holloway, 24, has reportedly claimed she turned her car into a missile and mowed down dozens of Las Vegas pedestrians yesterday because she was feeling “stressed.”
The homeless woman, accused of killing one person and injuring dozens after slamming a car carrying her 3-year-old daughter into a crowd on the Las Vegas Strip, told authorities she was stressed out after being chased by security guards from parking lots where she had been trying to sleep, according to a police report.
Holloway resided in Oregon and had been in Las Vegas for about a week in her 1996 Oldsmobile sedan, parking it at garages throughout the city, Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo said.
After her arrest, Holloway “described a stressful period today where she was trying to rest/sleep inside her vehicle with her daughter but kept getting run off by security of the properties she stopped at,” the police report states.
“She ended up on the Strip, ‘a place she did not want to be,'” the report quoted her as saying. “She would not explain why she drove onto the sidewalk but remembered a body bouncing off her windshield, breaking it.”
Investigators said Holloway had run out of money and she and her daughter had been living in the car. Police believe she was headed to Dallas to find her daughter’s father after they had a falling out.
Holloway is accused of intentionally mowing down people on a busy stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard, killing a woman from Arizona and injuring dozens of others on Sunday night.
After the crash, she parked at a casino a few blocks away, told a parking attendant that she had run down people and asked the valet to call 911, Lombardo said. Her daughter, who was in the backseat, was not hurt.
The sheriff said Holloway was stoic when police arrived, showed no resistance and spoke coherently about what happened. He declined to elaborate on what she said.
“She didn’t appear to be distressed due to her actions. That’s the best way I can describe it,” Lombardo said.
The crash happened in front of the Paris and Planet Hollywood casino-hotels and across from dancing water fountains of the Bellagio hotel-casino. Droves of visitors to the stretch walk from one casino to another.
There was no evidence that Holloway had consumed alcohol, but a drug recognition expert at the scene determined that she was under the influence of some sort of stimulant, Lombardo said.
Holloway, who was being held without bail, will be charged with murder with a deadly weapon, said Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson, who anticipated “a great number” of additional charges.
“When a person drives a 2,000-pound-plus motor vehicle intentionally onto a sidewalk, killing and injuring scores of people, that’s murder,” Wolfson said.

Now she can have 3 squares a day, Sleep, shower and be stress free for the rest of her life. Her child most likely be put in the system and hopefully will turn out to be a good person when she grows up. Maybe!
You are right on. More taxpayers dollars wasted.
What ever happened to the ball and chain gang? It needs to be reimplemented along with the gallos!!!
What ever happened to “Compassion?”
IT died with the entitlement society…….
I’m entitled to THIS
I’m entitled to THAT
ALL you’re entitled to is the chance to do something good !!!
Compassion for whom?
I hope you are talking about compassion for the murderer. The only ones who deserve compassion are the victims!
What is the matter with you??? Compassion? How much compassion did this fruitcake show to the people she ran over and killed???
You must be a darn democrap and Nobama voter because you sound that moronic…..
I’ve been taught, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Maybe she wants someone to run over her stupid ass.
Compassion for the child, a rope for the mother!
I hope you mean compassion for the dead woman and all the injured people.
Oh yes, compassion. If that woman had been white she’d be in all kinds of trouble. Since she’s black, some liberal judge will probably give her a week end of house arrest. Personally I have nothing against black people. I’ve known some I liked and respected. But it’s come to the point many feel they can get away with anything. If she doesn’t get off Obama will probably pardon her.
“Compassion?” Is thhat the name of the young mother of three that the fiend killed?
Compassion? Nope not for her. We all have stressed lives but we don’t run people down. She thinks cause she’s black she’ll get off. Jail is too good for her. Just shot her. What a waste
She kills one and injures dozens more. How much compassion does she deserve?
There is no compassion for a woman who deliberately kills and sets out to hurt prople. Give her the death warrent.
Al you asked whatever happened to the ball and chain gang? Don’t you know that’s cruel and unusual punishment and as such has been banned by all the LIBS in this country?
Seems to me being run over while minding your own business standing on the SIDEWALK
would also fit under the same “category” would it not?
Bring her out to the desert and let her fend for herself for as long as she might and let the buzzards be fed !!!
In Nevada they have road gangs and other forms of community work for prisoners to perform as a part of their incarceration. Hopefully she will work for her room and board. As far compassion, she had none for her victims and deserves none for herself.
Gallows for her right now. Oh, just stake her out in the desert about 30 miles from Vegas, that’ll take care of us. No expense to the rest of us. Coyotes need to eat. So to the buzzards.
You got that right. Now all on US THE TAX PAYERS. WOW What else is coming next
I feel stressed also. But, I don’t have the right to run over people!
Gee, would a dreadful alternative – go to a medical center and seek help. If the population were to follow her cue then the Muslim-Marxist jihadist puppet and the NWO-elitists wouldn’t need to import ISIS into our dead Republic because we would do the job ourselves.
you make it sound like she’s going to a rehabilitation center! lmao
Long walk. Off a short pier……
Does Nevada have a death penalty?
Looney Liberals like Killery will now demand that cars be banned… If this crazed idiot had a gun she would have surely used it…Just goes to show guns and cars don’t kill people…PEOPLE DO !!!
well said!
You got that right!!!
You’re preachin’ to the choir, John!
Murderer!
White people matter.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT. INFACT ALL PEOPLE MATTER
I feel sorry for idiots like you to make such a ridiculous statement, Pancho. How would you like it if someone said that Latinos don’t matter, they are animals! I am not one of those flaming leftists; but at the same time, I am quite liberal on race.
Stressed my buttocks! She looks like a muslim pig to me!!!
how does a muslim pig look like? do muslims have pigs? nonsense!!
Only as pets – sorta like the indians revere cows :):):)
You are a racist pig and a huge part of Americas problem with your racist attitude and more than likely a 50 IQ. SAD
Wow, what language. Now go stand in the corner until you can write civil.
Molly? Move to any muslim country stay for a month. If you live you will have your answer as to who is racist. Better yet. Move to Compton for a few days and you will see who is racist. Grow up girl and stop drinking the liberal koolade.
LOL!! Right On, David!
Sorry teddy, your as ignorant as they are. You add nothing to the conversation, aside from your own racisum
Thats “racism”.
No more stress, now she has IT made. Everything free, drugs, TV. ALL she has to do is sleep.
MANY PEOPLE GET “STRESSED”. MANY PEOPLE GET SICK FROM STRESS BUT THEY DON’T GO OUT AND KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE. I HAVE WORKED WITH SINGLE PARENTS WITH DEPENDENT CHILDREN SINCE 1992 AND I HAVE SEEN THEM CRYING, PLEADING FOR A CHANGE IN THEIR LIVES, ‘BUT THEY DID NOT GO OUT AND KILL PEOPLE’.. THAT GIRL SUFFERS FROM “BITTERNESS AND A DISTORTED UNDERSTANDING OF HER PLACE IN LIFE ON THIS EARTH”. THERE ARE MANY TODAY LIKE THAT BECAUSE IT IS WRITTEN “A COUNTRY IS ONLY AS GOOD AS ITS LEADERS”. LOOK AT THE LEADERSHIP (OR LACK OF IT) IN OUR COUNTRY TODAY. THERE YOU WILL FIND THE ANSWER AND THOSE WHO HAVE MADE LIFE DIFFICULT AND LED PEOPLE TO THE WRONG BELIEFS AND POVERTY, SHOULD BE THE ONES THAT PAY THE PENALTIES!
THAT GIRL’S ACTIONS AWAKENS MANY EMOTIONS: ONE OF COMPASSION THAT SHE FELL INTO SUCH TACTICS AND BELIEFS (ACTIONS FOLLOW BELIEFS) , ANOTHER OF PAIN FOR THE VICTIMS, WHO WERE LOYAL CITIZENS OF THIS WORLD, MANY ENJOYING BEING ON A VACATION WITH THEIR FAMILIES AND ONE FAMILY IS TORN COMPLETELY APART. SO SORRY FOR “SICK AND IGNORANT HUMANITY”. IT IS WRITTEN THAT GOD SAYS “TURN UNTO ME AND I WILL HEAL YOUR LAND AND YOUR DISEASES (DIS-EASES)”
GET THE LIBERAL SUBVERSIVES OUT OF OUR COUNTRY AND PUT UP BORDERS. WILL YOU LET A CRIMINAL OR ANY PERSON COME TO YOUR HOME AND TAKE OVER YOUR LIFESTYLE? TAKE THE KEYS TO YOUR RESIDENCE, CAR, EAT YOUR FOOD AND WEAR YOUR CLOTHES? WILL YOU INVITE STRANGERS INTO YOUR LIFE AND SPACE? THEN DON’T EXPECT OUR COUNTRY TO BRING IN PEOPLE WHO WE DON’T KNOW AND THEIR BELIEFS!
Great explanation & remedy “we the people” should follow.
Totally agree. We are a Christian Nation, NOT a Judaeo-Christian Nation… when was that slipped into our conversation… Israel has a country that we setup for them, and they claim it for Jews. WE have a country we fought and prayed for and established it as a Christian country. Sorry for this girl and her daughter, and for the victims and their families. Did any of those security people that chased her out of safe parking lots try to get help for her and the baby in that car? Not My Job huh. Not My Job. USA is in deep trouble, has been since after WWII, inviting and welcoming people into our country that we wanted to help and felt sorry for. They took positions in our Universities then control, and slithered into our lower grade schools and have a stranglehold on education. We MUST close the Federal Department of Education and return responsibilities to States where it was when we had World-Class educational system, excellent teachers interested in students’ brains and futures instead of their pants, students proud to be students learning from valuable curriculum and graduating with confidence in themselves, their futures and their country. We have watched the Dumbing Down of America, read the books of similar titles, talked and have been confused and disgusted but not sure the source of the “destruction.” Now we know. Now we must act to save our kids and country… and our FREEDOM. Vote for ONLY active Christians, and if they prove to lean to the anti-Christs in office, vote them out and replace with other active Christians. Repeat. Wont take long for the active Christians to understand that leaning toward the will of the anti-Christs is a career ender. We must throw off our zombie sleep, and it looks like Americans ARE waking and are very very angry and will FIGHT those inside who are destroying the USA to create their own North America Union NAU. THAT’s why they have directed politicians to keep our borders OPEN to enable Invaders to flood our country. Like Soros the big chief of the anti-Christs told the President of Hungary who exploded with anger and his remarks were published everywhere except… vaguely in USA… Soros said National Borders must be removed…. DO YOU KNOW WHY??? so they can step up their take over of the world… One World Government. NeoconZionistCommies… NOT Putin and Russia’s Red Commies… Putin and Russia HATE the NeoconZionistCommies and put them in the slammer or boot them out of the country. THAT is why so many Americans like and respect Putin. As a Lifelong Christian American Republican, it is clear we are on the edge of “educating” those who did not “learn” the first time around.
Are you and idiot? All of our court laws come from the Hebrew culture. An eye witness account has the most weight in a courtroom. That comes from Hebrew law. Jesus was not a Christian, the movement he started came to be Christianity. We are a judeao- Christian nation, are you really filed with that much hate towards the Israelites? Let me leave you with this misinformed troll, those who come against me ( Almighty God speaking) Israel and it,s people) I will come against them. A 300million man army will march against Israel, that,s nearly the entire population of America. The entire army will be annihilated by God himself. And so will you if you don,t change your thinking about His chosen. Wake up fool
the tribe of judah was god,s chosen people which are the jews.but they went of the track many times& went into captivity for not obeying the TEN commandments, which were are the bases supposidly of our law..but since they have kicked the ten commandments & the bible out of schools & law courts & no longer honor god in name of political correctness which is a big big scam, things have started to go down hill & faster.so what about the 12 tribes otherthan judah .traced they are the nations without dictaters that have freedom & laws.britain & america especialy..but thy are on aslide towards sodom & gomorah so bye bye.it will get worse withoutA big change…
This Is a Judeo Christian nation. Get your facts straight! About 5 years after this country was started, it was totally bankrupt and a Jewish billionaire stepped in and bailed out the USA. Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem and Bless Israel so that you may be also blessed! And I am a Christian!
WRONG!!!!!’
I especially agree with Christina’s comment, ” … ‘A COUNTRY IS ONLY AS GOOD AS ITS LEADERS’…” We surely do not have good leadership in the USA and let’s pray that there is a change in Party for the next administration!.
i’ve been praying that for 2 years. A good old fashioned assassination would be helpful right now.
“WE THE PEOPLE”… have to change the constitution, and the leadership, otherwise we are allowing a lot of bad shit to happen in our names, by the very people that represent us. There are ways to fix our Federal Government and reel them back in. You, and everybody knows they are out of control, and seem to screw everything up. Tell me one thing they are good at… besides putting us in the poor house…
Our Forefathers gave us tools to fix the Federal governments ass if they get out of line, as they are today. They knew this would happen, because it always does. They knew power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Our federal government is corrupt, they don’t listen to us anymore, and they don’t ask our permission to do ANYTHING. They have one responsibility, and they aren’t doing that…. they are doing everything else but! What they don’t understand is; they rule us, because we allow them to rule, and that’s the bottom line.
We just need to use the tools Madison and Adams and the crew left for us. We can use the constitution to fix the constitution… then they can’t do diddle shit, unless we say how big of a pile we want.
Next, you are probably going to ask me “what tools?” Well, there’s a very large group of people already legally working against the illegal operations going on in DC. The good news is, there are 4 States with their paper work done, and ready to fight this battle…. but we only need 34 more states to gather people and paperwork, then we win and fix this system! We have the tools and we have the power, lets not waste our time complaining.
The tool I speak of is called the Article 5 Convention of the States. conventionofstates.com Google it, volunteer, and help fix the problem, instead of wondering what can be done. We The People have the Power, and we actually we have more power than the federal government.
Yelling does not help your case. Try a magnesium supplement.
“We the people” have the compassion an strength to help our citizens, but need our leadership to comply with our laws to bring order to this United States.
Read my note above… we have the power and the tools to fix all this… We The People have the power.
Another crew member for Obama’s army of demented socio-communists who will get the benefits of the Omnibus tax dollars fortune approved by the Republican Congress in an early Christian Christmas present for the Muslim predator usurping our White House. .
Well Said, Jerry! As a retired USAF member,30 years Active and Reserves, I feel that all the years I spent in trying to serve our Nation, I feel that this time spent has been wasted by this DO NOTHING Administration in power now.! God Help us or is it too late?
It’s not too late and your years serving this Country were not wasted. We have the tools and the power to fix our federal gov. You all just need to help us. Much has already been done, and the ball is rolling toward Washington. Log on to the conventionofstates.com (<– this site only) site and look around see how much we have done, and maybe volunteer to help get your state on board. The good news is we already have 4 states with completed paper work and are ready to rock and roll. We only need 34 more states on board before we make our legal move to permanently fix our bad Fed. Thanks, please check it out.
I agree! Amen.
She was NOT a terrorist or Muslim will you idiots stop the bullshit and get real this incident has Nothing to do with these issues you’re sounding like a bunch of haters of everything grow up !
You are right, Beverly. It is disgusting to see how the NeoconZionistCommies have infiltrated every Govt office, every agency and organization and have stranglehold on all, even our Chamber of Commerce that takes orders from Secy of Commerce who has done NADA to help the USA… As a Christian Nation… NOT a Judaeo-Christian Nation… these situations are a serious affront to Christianity, and welcomed by the NZCs who step on Christian ethics to the degree that they overpower online comments with their usual No Compassion. These things are a great SHAME on Christians, as is the refusal to bring in Syrian CHRISTIAN Refugees. SHAME SHAME SHAME.
Thank you!
You right Beverly, however don,t you think it is she who is the hater? We need to bring back the death penalty. Why should taxes go towards housing people doing evil things? The prisons as it is are overflowing. All of this overgrowth and demented thinking started when the bible was stripped out of the school system. All one needs do, is look to the years before the stripping of the bible from the public school system, then look now @ how high the numbers have advanced in violent crimes. The woman admitted her guilt, she should be executed. A lot of this crap would be the exception rather than the norm, if people knew what was in store for them after committing such Hyannis crimes
Bud I agree once they took the bible (prayer) out of school it all went straight to hell!
All down hill, after that, No Bible, No rest for, we the people….
It is not only in Hyannis that heinous crimes are committed !
We all have stress, but do not hurt others. there is an underlying issue here , which is very hush hush and rarely discussed . We do not know her circumstances. Why is she living in her car with a young child? Why isnt she getting financial help from the father or the govt? the sytem failed her. The govt. gives and gives to illegals , and ignores its own citizens. This shouldnt happen. women do not get help. Veterans get help, children get help, but American women, whether they are abuse victims or just poor do not get much help from the govt.
Why does she not have a job ? Where is her personal responsibility ? Why do you think the government should take responsibility ? If the father doesn’t have a job, isn’t it her responsibility to care for the child ? There are shelters all across the country that help women with children !
That’s baloney! There are SO many programs for women and minorities, both. SHE is responsible for her OWN ACTIONS!
Stressed out my A$$. SHe should now be STRETCHED out on the RACK. She MURDERED a young white woman with three young children, plain and simple. EVERYONE has problems, and EVERYONE needs to accept those problems as their responsiblilty, and deal with them. What she chose to do was blame everyone BUT herself for her own poor choices, and vent her an ger on tens of innocent persons.
Your and others’ bleeding heart attitudes are more responsible for this sort of unacceptable, irresponsible, anti-social behavior than ANY government official. Those clowns in this country have built a huge federal government hellbent on socializing EVERY form of personal responsibility. The fact that she “fell through the cracks,” is a sign of just how lazy the entitled crowd in this country have gotten, gievn that there are literally THOUSANDS of programs to help women and their children.
She could have been Obama’s daughter. A statement he uses all the time.
Actually she looks like a thinner, (much thinner ) Miss Shell !
Probably was … or slick Willie’s.
Hot Dang… a 24 yr old girl living in a car with her toddler baby girl, out of money, abandoned by the child’s father and NOT KNOWING what to do, and NO PERSON reaching out to help her. The admonition If You See Something Say Something has always been the duty of CHRISTIANS… but has been taken over by the government to apply only to weaponry dangers. Where are the Christians?
Have you volunteered on location? Do you not see the assault being levied on the church by the progessive Marxist movement? Why are you blaming the Christians? Your thinking is backwards, I already pointed that Ur to you in an earlier post. What an idiot
Her situation comes from the libtard concept of PAYING WELFARE HOS TO DOWNLOAD WELFARE RATS and live off the government. She had no business with a child in the first place. IF YA CAN’T FEED EM, DON’T BREED EM!
amen to that!
She apparently did not ask for help from the Christians, they are just Christians, not mind readers.
Well, if she felt stressed, then that explains it. I wonder if the people she was crashing her car into felt stressed? Yes, I guess I must be a hater. I just hate it when someone purposely drives into innocent people on the sidewalk.
Talk about stress I spent 20 years in the Navy and that was a very stressful job because I was a single father with two boys and I had to go on detachments and leave them with a baby sitter while I was gone sometimes for two to three weeks at a time. I feel she must have been on something that changed her perception of reality. My children are grown bu tI know several of their friends were IN THE SYSTEM and they range from free loaders to very responsible people. What she did is FIRST degree Murder and she should be stood on the street and have a remotely controlled vehicle hit her until she is DEAD. This government is just too weak on persons that commit such insidious crimes. If we started having public executions via hanging or firing squad then maybe that would curve this rash of crimes.
When the Government encourages, promotes, and incentivizes irresponsible child production, this happens. It’s going to get a lot worse. People foolish believe that the ‘village’ is going to take good care of their kids. Lakeisha’s parents probably thought that too. The reality is that you shouldn’t be having children unless you’re going to be able to raise them well. And if that means you shouldn’t be having children, then that means you shouldn’t be having children. Sorry if that pops your bubble, but it’s the truth, plain and simple.
If criminals get room, meals, health care and more…why can’t they do some real productive work while incarcerated that benefits the society that pays their way. This cruel and unusual treatment legal concept has gone too far.
AMEN!!
She told them ” I’m just stressed out”… Yeah, right…. The cops supposedly knew this from the beginning, and were too embarrassed to tell anyone?? Yeah, right…. Bet she was a recent mooslum convert, and the best way she could attack the most ”sinners” in America, was to go down to Sin City in Nevada, and take out as many as she could on her limited income and knowledge,,, We have heard of the stockpile of explosives and pay to use phones in Missouri,,, it is only going to get worse as we get closer to Christmas folks… Whoops, I may get banned for saying Christmas by the PC police… The cops (in a state controlled by Prince Harry the crook Reid, ) had to get their marching orders on how to release the ”story” from the ovomit controlled press department…. We may never know the real reason for this ”terror attack” on these innocent people. If this had happened by a white person in Detroit, it would automatically be called an attack by ”a white supremacist” wacko. But, because she is black, she was just ”stressed”….
Execution would bring it permanent stress relief.
….Agreed ! But do it in a peaceful, nonviolent way . NOT !
If this was a white person and a black would have been injured the blacks would be playing the race card and burning down businesses in the area. Obama would have sent his Justice dept. to investigate and he would say how much the black kid looks like someone he knows.
that’s very true, Dan! Well Said!
The uninformed so called Christian we are a Judeo Christian nation Jesus Christ was a rabbi and certainly a Jew God sent him to save the Jews most did not accept him as the Messiah , But Jesus preached to all and healed everybody . On the cross a murder and a thief were with him the murderer said they deserved to die but not him His reply was that the murderer would be with him in paradise that day .. Your missing why he was among us …to forgive us all . all Jesus owned was his robe and a bowl to eat from .He was here for all of us even Muslims which came later ,Their Allah is the same God of Abraham and Jacob . the Muslims have missed the whole message of living under God . They are like rabid dogs their day is coming .I’m for helping them along the virgins are waiting boy what crap
I guess she won’t be homeless after this. 10-20 years for murder should keep her off the streets.
Let’s hope her daughter will be placed with a good family who will raise her the right way.
Well, a lot of questions could be asked: Where/who is Poppa? If you are broke, why drive all the way from Oregon to Las Vegas? Was she on the “No fly list?” One thing is for sure, She will get plenty of time to sleep and 3 hots and a cot for the foreseeable future! I am surprise Al Sharpton is not out there by now!
No excuse for what she did. However from the story it appears she had run out of money and being harassed by parking lot security caused her to reach a breaking point that she took out on innocent pedestrians. Her problem could have been resolved if she had sought help from social services or the church. However she had become irrational and caused a lot of harm to a society that she probably felt did not care anything for her or her child.
Jo Ann Fonzone,
There is an old saying that “God helps those who help themselves.” There is a true story about a young man who couldn’t afford to go to College, so he resorted to using the local Library in his town as his “College.” He never spent a day in an actual College until he was hired by one to teach (he taught at the University of Utah – my al’ma ma’ter.) All this chitter-chatter about not having the money to become educated is a bunch of baloney. What really counts is effort and desire.
So sad and so young to have a wasted life. Where was the welfare help for her or some place she could have turned too. Stop the USA government from taking in foreigners and start helping those we have here now…Wonder if the drugs were legal ?
Any word yet on which drug(s) she was using?
I really hope this was not some twisted version of a “BLM” action.
I pray that her little girl is able to erase the memory of bodies bouncing off her mom’s car as she ruthlessly plowed down innocent people off the sidewalk.
She was supposedly getting a job with the forestry service, What happened to that? Why did she throw it away and move to Vegas where she didn’t have any prospects? I blame the education system and the liberal parties that go out of their way to teach people how to be as stupid as they can be.
Let’s all vote for hillary and have another round of crazies leading our great country. I say we get rid of all the goofey politicians and vote in a president who is not politically motivated by anyone. Another comment for the woman who ran over several people out enjoying themselves.Chain gang,bread and water,no TV and take away her driver’s license.
When are we going to learn that cars kill. What we need is stronger car control laws. All kinds of mentally ill and criminal people have access to vehicles. Unless steps can be taken to restrict the usage of vehicles the carnage will continue.
She should be jail for life and her driving licence should revoke for ever
She got her wish. She isn’t homeless any more. Of course she created a lot of grief for innocent people.
Hopefully this woman will get the death penalty. Taxpayers should not have to keep her up for five or six decades.
I stopped reading a couple of comments after the one that included language like “democraps” and “NObama voters”. Have we fallen so low as to use a human tragedy to vilify one another?
Why comment? They don’t listen. You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink.
