Casino giant MGM Resorts is telling federal regulators it thinks it might pay up to $800 million to settle liability lawsuits stemming from the October 2017 mass shooting that became the deadliest in modern U.S. history.  

 Las Vegas authorities and MGM Resorts have begun discussions on possibly constructing a SWAT building at the site of the Strip shooting. 

Two Las Vegas-based casino companies say they each plan to take on at least $1 billion in debt to help pay for new casino-hotel developments in Massachusetts among other things.
