Attendees of the Cable Show in Las Vegas woke up to hear helicopters circling after a man was killed in a blast early Mon at nearby Luxor’s parking garage. Police said the man, who worked out a business inside the hotel, was killed when he tried to pick up a device on top of a car. "This appears to have been a small device that was constructed in such a way to target a single individual victim," police told the AP. No other damage was reported, and things continued normally at the show Mon. — The biggest buzz Mon was also the biggest buzz Sun: HBO chmn/CEO Chris Albrecht’s arrest for suspicion of assaulting his girlfriend. The arrest came in the wee hours of Sun morning, following Sat night’s fight between Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr, which was broadcast on PPV by HBO. Albrecht was booked into the Clark County Detention Center and later released, according to AP. HBO offered no comment by deadline.
