The family of a British man who died due to diabetic complications while staying at a Las Vegas Strip casino-hotel has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the resort and a local medical transport company, according to court records.
The estate of William Howell is suing Aria casino-hotel, its parent company MGM Resorts International, Henderson-based Community Ambulance, two medical transport employees and Roe Security Company in a Nevada court, alleging Howell’s death from diabetic ketoacidosis in August 2023 was the result of negligence and wrongful acts committed by the defendants.
The five-count civil suit was filed Thursday in the Eighth Judicial District Court by Emma Vassallo – the estate’s co-administrator — on behalf of Howell’s two surviving minor sons, Louis and Jack.
