Federal and local authorities have uncovered what they allege was an illegal biological laboratory operating inside a Las Vegas home owned by a Chinese national. Newly released footage from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department shows a dramatic hazmat response as agents hauled bags of medical tubing, vials and containers filled with unknown liquids from the suburban property. More than 1,000 samples were collected and sent for testing, according to Christopher Delzotto, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Las Vegas field office. Police confirmed the home is owned by Jia Bei Zhu, the same individual linked to a previous investigation into an alleged illegal biological laboratory discovered in Reedley, California, in 2023. 'He is not involved in any kind of biolab being conducted in a home in Las Vegas,' Capozzi said.
