A gunman upset over losing his Social Security benefits case, opened fire in the lobby of a federal building in downtown Las Vegas on Monday, killing a court officer and wounding a deputy U.S. marshal before he was shot to death.

The traffic detours on MacArthur Boulevard and the closing of a portion of the Somers Point circle are part of the six-year, $400 million effort to build a new elevated Route 52 causeway connecting Somers Point and Ninth Street in Ocean City.

The city's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene spent $32,000 of tax money on 70,000 copies that offer information on how to prepare drugs carefully and care for veins to avoid infection.
