There were 12 felony arrests on Friday night, 5 on Saturday, and 11 on Sunday.

“We’re proud to say there were no major incidents or injuries reported during the entire weekend,” the Metropolitan Police Department wrote in a Monday afternoon post on X.

No information was available on the number of medical calls.

There were an estimated 170,000 attendees each night of the annual event at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Several hundred officers from various jurisdictions worked the event and provided traffic control along various routes, especially Interstate 15 and Las Vegas Boulevard.
