Description
Police say a suspect has been found dead as officers responded Wednesday to a “confirmed active shooter” in a building at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
The Los Vegas sheriff says there is no further threat but that multiple victims were taken to a hospital.
“This is not a test,” the university wrote on X. “RUN-HIDE-FIGHT.”
The university said the shooter was at the Beam Hall, Frank and Estella Building, home of UNLV’s Lee Business School, and that police had responded to a report of additional shots fired at the nearby student union.
UNLV has more than 30,000 undergraduate and graduate students at its 332-acre campus is less than 2 miles east of the Las Vegas Strip.
The shooting occurred in a city still scarred by one of the worst mass killings in U.S. history, the Oct. 1, 2017, mass shooting at the Mandalay Bay casino in Las Vegas, in which 60 were killed and hundreds more wounded. The UNLV campus is just over three miles from that location.
