Here are the top three stories in Las Vegas today:

1. There are 119 dogs at the Animal Foundation in Las Vegas that need foster families over the holiday season. Jason Myer, who’s been fostering for a few months, says he enjoys the companionship of foster dogs. Fostering can be a good fit for people like Myer who cannot commit to owning a dog long-term. (Fox 5 Las Vegas)
2. A Las Vegas man has suffered life-threatening injuries from a go-cart crash on Tuesday afternoon. Police say the homemade go-cart crashed into a parked SUV. Surveillance video, witness statements, and scene evidence are being used to investigate the accident. (Fox 5 Las Vegas)
3. Jonathan Nagel has been sentenced to 18 years in prison for a series of armed robberies in Las Vegas. Nagel pleaded guilty in September to robbing six businesses, brandishing a firearm, and failing to appear in court. Following his time in prison, Nagel will serve five years of supervised release.
