(Austin Anthony/AP)NevadaPolice apprehend man after bus shootingA man sitting at the back of a public bus on the Las Vegas Strip opened fire “for no apparent reason” as passengers got off at a stop in the heart of the tourism corridor, police said Sunday. Rolando Cardenas, 55, has been accused in the shooting, and he surrendered peacefully after a standoff inside the double-decker bus that lasted more than four hours, police said. He was booked into jail on suspicion of murder, attempted murder, burglary and opening fire on the bus. The victims are Angelique Vasquez, 45; her daughter, Mia Vasquez, 14; her son, Alvin Vasquez, 11; and Ashley Coleman, 21, according to the Sacramento County coroner’s office. Decades later, he smiled as Lt. Col. Marcus Wright leaned down to pin the Purple Heart to his jacket Saturday.
