On Sunday night, two individuals were shot and killed on the Las Vegas Strip in an incident described by police as “isolated,” causing panic among bystanders. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department reported that the gunfire erupted around 10:40 PM local time, near the Bellagio Hotel and Casino, though the shooting did not take place inside the casino.
Authorities have not yet identified the victims or the suspect, and no arrests have been made. Officers on patrol in the area responded swiftly to the sound of gunfire and discovered two victims on the sidewalk with apparent gunshot wounds. Despite their attempts at administering medical aid, both were pronounced dead at the scene.
A police statement revealed that the suspect might be known to the victims, as there had reportedly been prior conflicts between them on various social media platforms. A YouTuber who was livestreaming during the incident recorded video footage of the chaos, which included a man firing a gun multiple times. This video has since been taken down but had been viewed by various news outlets.
In light of the incident, police are urging anyone with further information to contact the Crime Stoppers Hotline. The shooting has raised concerns about public safety, especially in such a heavily trafficked area. Authorities continue to investigate the situation, aiming to bring clarity to what transpired during the attack.
