The gunman who opened fire just outside the Grand Sierra Resort casino shot multiple people before being taken into custody, police said.
“Officers immediately located the suspect at which time an officer involved shooting occurred,” police said in a statement. “The suspect was taken into custody and transported to a local area hospital. The suspect’s condition is unknown at this time. There is no known continuing threat to the public.”
The conditions of the victims were not immediately known either, said Reno police spokesperson Chris Johnson.
Caroline Ackerman, a spokesperson for Renown Regional Medical Center, said the hospital’s emergency department received several patients with gunshot wounds.
