2007
Luxor parking-garage bombing
A homemade pipe bomb detonated in a vehicle in the Luxor parking garage on May 7, killing a young employee of a Nathan's Famous outlet. Authorities determined that the employee was the intended target in a personal dispute rather than that the attack was directed at the resort. Two perpetrators were convicted and received life sentences without parole in 2010. The resort was not evacuated and normal operations continued.
