Here are the top 3 stories today in Las Vegas:

  1. "F" Putin shots are gaining a lot of popularity at a downtown Las Vegas pizza bar. Evel Pie is showing its support for Ukraine as it continues to fight invading Russian forces through liquor. If you come down to the bar, you can order an "F" Putin shot or dump a bottle of Russian-made vodka into the gutters for a $300 donation. However, the manager wants to emphasize that their anger is directed towards Putin and not the Russian people. All proceeds will go towards humanitarian efforts that support Ukraine. (KTNV Las Vegas)
  2. The Las Vegas Metropolitan police are asking for the community's assistance in the search for a missing man. 58-year-old Dale Hughs is a 6 foot white man with brown eyes and grey hair that is approximately around 180 pounds. He was last seen on Saturday morning near the 5500 block of West Duncan. Hughs may be in danger as well. If you or anyone you know has information regarding Hughs, please contact the correct authorities. For full details about the search, please check out the full article. (News3LV)
  3. Green Adventure Festival is set on coming to Las Vegas this fall. The festival "is an advocate for a healthier lifestyle, green ecosystem, and a focus on vegan and vegetarianism." It aims to encourage, educate, and inspire people to decrease their meat consumption. Additionally, it also seeks to improve peoples' overall health by helping them select more vegan and vegetarian alternatives. Jason Xiao, the founder and CEO of Green Adventure Festival, is very excited about the event and believes it is going to be a really fun experience. (Broadway World)
