HOUSTON » Houston police have charged two men in the fatal shooting of a man who was arrested last month for having sex on a Las Vegas Ferris wheel.

Houston Police Department says Bryant Christopher Watts and Aaron Jones are being held without bond today on capital murder charges in the death of Phillip Frank Panzica.

Police say the three men and Panzica’s fiancée left an adult entertainment club in Houston where she works early Saturday. The fiancée told police that Watts shot Panzica, kicked her from the car then drove off. The motive is unclear.

The suspects were caught 300 miles away in Concho County.

Panzica and a New York woman were arrested Feb. 5 on charges of committing sex acts in public on the High Roller in Las Vegas.

    Las Vegas just has a really dirty, toxic reputation. Nothing good seems to happen there.

      Quite an understatement. Read LVRJ.com regularly and you won’t find a day go by that at least one homicide occurs, or a week where LVMPD isn’t involved in an officer-involved shooting. Hit-and-Runs abound and traffic fatalities in the city occur seemingly every other day. There just seems to be a shocking disregard for human life there and GREED is the order of the day. Vegas is NOWHERE to raise a family. It’s a nice place to visit but you wouldn’t want to live there.
