Fox News is reporting that law enforcement prevented a mass casualty attack by another trans-terrorist, this time in Las Vegas, Nevada.
It’s another dude-looks-like-a-lady tranny, and officers found tons of weapons and ammo, along with audio recordings suggesting he’d carry out a mass shooting attack at some point in the future.

Police say they thwarted what could have been a devastating mass casualty attack after arresting a transgender Nevada suspect accused of plotting a shooting on the Las Vegas Strip and uncovering an arsenal that included machine guns, grenade launchers and more than 50 firearms.
Allison Howlett, 36, who police identify in the arrest report as transgender, was arrested June 27 after Henderson police received a frantic 911 call from the suspect’s spouse reporting a domestic dispute, a stolen vehicle loaded with firearms and threats of both “suicide by cop” and a mass shooting.
Using vehicle tracking technology, Henderson police traced the stolen SUV to the parking garage at Sunset Station casino, where officers boxed in the vehicle after finding Howlett inside with loud music blaring and refusing repeated commands to surrender.
Authorities said officers eventually convinced Howlett to lower a window by offering water before pulling the suspect from the vehicle and deploying a Taser during the struggle.
“It should be noted that the suspect had been sitting on a handgun and had access to a fully automatic, silenced MP5-style machine gun in the back seat of the vehicle, further corroborating the reported threats of suicide by cop and having the means to carry out a mass shooting,” Henderson Police Chief Reggie Rader said during a Tuesday news conference.
Authorities say detectives recovered 22 firearms from the stolen vehicle, including handguns, rifles, a fully automatic firearm, suppressors, high-capacity magazines and hundreds of rounds of ammunition.
A subsequent search warrant executed at Howlett’s Henderson residence uncovered 30 additional firearms, including automatic weapons, an M2 .50-caliber machine gun, two Colt AR-style rifles equipped with M203 grenade launchers, seven suppressors and thousands of rounds of ammunition, investigators said.
As the investigation unfolded, Henderson police enlisted the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Southern Nevada Counter Terrorism Center, the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force and the FBI’s Las Vegas Field Office.
Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren said investigators uncovered evidence that Howlett allegedly made threats over an extended period of time.
“Some of that information included the threat of wanting to become an active shooter or to conduct a mass attack here in Las Vegas,” Koren said.
Police also played audio during Tuesday’s news conference that investigators said was recorded in 2024 and captured Howlett allegedly threatening a future mass shooting.
“If the FBI doesn’t come … arrest me, there’s gonna be a … massacre. … One day … hundreds of people [are] going to lose their lives,” the person heard in the recording says.
