A Florida man was arrested recently for stealing a Razor Scooter from Target! The scooter was valued at $540.

The 28-year-old man walked into his local Target, grabbed the high priced scooter and walked out. Now he probably would have gotten away if he left the scene of the crime, but he has other plans. A Target employee saw him wheeling the scooter out in a cart, so they called the police.

When the police showed up, they expected to just take a report, but instead they found the man outside of the Target trying to put the scooter together. The man was planning to use the scooter as his getaway.

He was arrested for shoplifting and possession of drug paraphernalia! He told police he was homeless and needed the scooter to get around.

11 Unforgettable Things You Should Do In Las Vegas On Your Birthday

Las Vegas is the entertainment capital of the world. And we’re never without something to do.

Whether it’s for a birthday or any other day, locals and tourists alike can experience and myriad of things to do in Las Vegas. We have night clubs, Cirque du Soleil shows, escape rooms, fine dining and so much more. And outside the city there are even more options. The Colorado River is less than an hour away. We are surrounded by the Red Rocks, Valley of Fire, Lake Mead and Mount Charleston.

Needless to say, we are never without something to do in Sin City. And on any given weekend, locals will hit up one or many of these options. That’s just the life of a Las Vegas resident. It’s like living at Disneyland! But maybe there is a downside to that.

Because when it comes to your birthday, you want to do something special!

Something unique. Something out of the ordinary. But what is out of the ordinary when the “ordinary” is life in the entertainment capital of the world? Maybe the traditional night out on the town doesn’t just cut it for Southern Nevadans needing an upgrade.

Of course, for some Las Vegans, a staycation on the strip or a dinner at one of the very expensive celebrity chef restaurants still does the trick. After all, just because we live here, doesn’t mean we have the vacation budget all year long.

Because our special day requires a special celebration. It turns out we can do something on “our” day that we don’t do every weekend. And we can still do it without even leaving Nevada.

Here’s a list of things to do in or near Las Vegas that are special enough to make you special day memorable. Even for a Las Vegas local. – Wendy

  • 1. ATV Tour

    If you want to be in total control of your birthday fun level, try riding around on an ATV. Above All Las Vegas ATV Tours has options for Mount Charleston, Valley of Fire and El Dorado Canyon. And they allow kids as young as six to ride.

  • 2. Hot-Air Balloon Ride

    This one is definitely one you should check out at least once. Balloons Over Pahrump offers sunrise balloon rides with wine tasting afterward. Now that sounds like a great way to spend a birthday. Vegas Balloon Rides also offers sunrise flights.

  • 3. Drive a Race Car at Las Vegas Motor Speedway

    If you want an adrenaline rush on your birthday, head over to the Speedway and drive one of the NASCAR race cars. At speeds up to 150mph, you won’t forget this one.

  • 4. Helicopter/Plane Tour Over the Grand Canyon

    Even if you’ve seen the Grand Canyon before, you’ve not really seen it unless you’ve done it from the sky. Papillon offers tours in a helicopter or small airplane. That’s definitely not something even Las Vegans do everyday.

  • 5. Lake Mead Boat Cruise

    A cruise on a riverboat around Hoover Dam is not a shabby way to celebrate a special occasion. Lake Mead Cruises even offers dinner and champagne brunch cruise options.

  • 6. Skydive Over The Grand Canyon

    This one might be the king of all adventures. Jumping out of a perfectly good plane with a stranger strapped to your back is not a birthday you’re going to forget. Trust me. I did it when I was 18 and I can still feel the clouds in my face. Paragon Skydive has packages that let’s you dive 16,000 miles above the Grand Canyon.

  • 7. Zip-lining at Bootlegger Canyon

    Sure, you can zipline on Fremont, but that’s more of a drunken weekend thing. If you want to stick with what is really special, check out Flightlinez ziplining over Bootlegger Canyon. That’s a ride you’ll not soon forget.

    If you’re not quite ready for jumping out of a plane on your birthday, but you still want to experience the free fall of skydiving, check out Vegas Indoor Skydiving. It will give you all of the wind in your face without any of the hassle of the parachute part.

  • 10. Helicopter Tour Over Vegas

    If you want to see Las Vegas from a view that even The STRAT can’t offer, check out Maverick. Their helicopter tours can take you up and down Sin City, or over the Grand Canyon as well.

  • 11. Play on a bulldozer

    Not only is this out of the ordinary, but it’s pretty unique. If you’re a dump truck kind of kid, this is an awesome way to spend a birthday. Dig This Vegas has giant playgrounds for adults to drive around in a real bulldozer, excavator, track loader and more. They have options for kids’ parties as well.

    However you choose to spend your special day, make sure it’s just that: special. And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
