Angry PLEASE HELP! A friend of mine was shot while in Las Vegas this morning!

I know this is a dumb request, but please help digg this story. My fiance and her friend that is getting married next month went to vegas for her bachelorette party.
This morning around 3am my lady calls me and tells me her friend was shot in the leg.
she has had surgery twice today, both bones in the right shin were completely shattered by the bullet which was still in her leg.

3 other innocent bystanders were also shot in the leg.

Only 1 local news station in Vegas is covering this story. Don't know why it's not all over the news yet.

Please help Digg this story!

no, it was some drunken idiots in front of Margaritaville.

www.ktvn.com is the only reporting Vegas news station on it right now. I've setup a comprehensive Google search on las vegas shootings. It seems like all the other news broadcasters in LV are talking about a shooting from earlier this month, and sports.

Hope the recovery goes well and they catch the guy(s)!
