Comedian in trouble in Laughlin
LAUGHLIN, Nev. – Nationally recognized comedian Gallagher’s Memorial Day weekend shows came to a smashing halt in Laughlin. According to Riverside Resort and Casino Entertainment Operations Manager Scott Babcock, Gallagher physically assaulted a California man who was purchasing a cocktail during the second performance Thursday night. “He felt that a cocktail waitress interfered with his show and that’s just not the case,†said Babcock. “That’s what he is blaming it on.†Babcock said that Gallagher quit after talking with hotel officials and so the rest of the shows had to be cancelled. The Las Vegas Metro Police Department was called out and Officer Bill Cassell said the preliminary investigation has concluded. “A police report was taken for battery which named Gallagher as the suspect,†said Cassell.
