DOJ Hopes to Curb Police-Involved Vegas Shootings
According to the Review-Journal, officers in the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department shot and killed a dozen people last year and shot and injured another 25 people. Overall, the paper reported that 142 people have been killed by police in the Las Vegas area since 1990.
By comparison since Las Vegas was founded 100 years ago 22 law enforcement officers have been killed while on duty.

No comment really on why the feds feel they have any business telling local folks how to maintain law and order in cities and towns far from DC. But I am sensing the beginnings of a law suit campaign against states with "shall-issue carry permits", "stand-your-ground" and "castle doctrine" self-defense laws, as well as their other perennial anti-RTKBA issues (assault weapon bans, et al.) is being fomented by the usual suspects. Coming to a federal court near you soon!
I agree the DoJ has no business telling any locality how to do it but when comparing the 142 citizens killed by Las Vegas PD in the past 22 years to the 22 Las Vegas PD officers killed on duty over the last 100 years the disparity clearly shows there is something rotten in Denmark.
