Retired wrestler and ex-congressional candidate suspected in Las Vegas killing surrenders to police

LAS VEGAS (AP) — A retired professional wrestler and former congressional candidate has surrendered to police in Nevada after a warrant was issued for his arrest as a suspect in the death of a man who died last year from a head injury at a Las Vegas Strip hotel. Police issued the warrant Wednesday for the arrest of 45-year-old Daniel Rodimer on a charge of open murder. He’s accused of killing 47-year-old Christopher Tapp. Rodimer’s lawyers said Wednesday night that he surrendered voluntarily. They said he plans to post bail and “vigorously” contest the allegations.
