In a news conference Wednesday, Las Vegas Undersheriff Kevin McMahill detailed what police know about the incident and showed a five-minute video of events leading up to Bennett's being detained.
McMahill said officers found Bennett crouching inside near a gaming machine and as officers approached, Bennett began to run and jumped a wall, landing on the street outside.
That is when officers detained Bennett for about 10 minutes, McMahill said. The officers who detained him had their guns out.
