Police said Thomas Driscoll, who served in the State Police for 22 years, was walking across a street bridge along the Las Vegas Strip with a woman. As they walked past Brandon Leath, 33, he began shouting and following them.
As the couple was going down the escalator, Leath ran down the opposite side and waited for them at the bottom. When the victim exited the escalator, he approached Leath. The two got into a verbal altercation and Leath punched the victim causing him to fall to the ground unconscious.
