Las Vegas Sun reporter Ron Sylvester reported that the first of three Starbucks will open in
CityCenter in early March, Henderson city attorneys filed suit against developer Chris Milam over a stadium project land deal near the M casino, and police sought Tineesha Lashun Howard, aka Yenesis Alfonzo, as a "person of interest" in the Strip shooting last Tuesday.
