Metro investigates a Saturday night knife fight between two rival biker gangs at a downtown wedding chapel, one of the victims is speaking out about the attack.
The man, whose identity we are keeping anonymous, is a Mongol.He says he was at A Special Memory Wedding Chapel to get married, when he came face to face with members of the Hells Angels. "We were friggen attacked, and we defended ourselves the best we could. It's real hard to do when you're outnumbered that bad, but that's alright. Mongol on," he said Sunday afternoon, after being released from surgery.
He tells us he was stabbed in the stomach three times, and his best man was also stabbed during the ordeal.According to him, the Hells Angels were just wrapping up a ceremony, as he was walking into the lobby with his fiance."I'd like to say the police and certain people are putting it out there that we did something wrong. That's not what it is. I came here to get married. I didn't even know that other people were here," he said.Meantime, the chapel's owner says it was just bad luck that both rival gangs had weddings scheduled within the same hour."There's 100,000 weddings a year in Las Vegas and how many across the world? To have two groups that close together, I think that's very odd," said Joshua Gust.
Metro continues to look for suspects. They have not released any information regarding any arrests.
