 "Las Vegas shooting leaves 2 dead, manhunt for suspect underway")
A manhunt ensued on the Las Vegas strip after two people were killed in a shooting incident near the iconic Bellagio fountains. Undersheriff Andrew Wals said that the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department were on patrol in the 3600 block of Las Vegas Blvd at around 10:40 pm (Local time) on Sunday when they heard gunfire coming from the west side of the street, Fox News reported.
Walsh told local reporters that the officers ran to the gunfire and found two victims lying on the sidewalk suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. The authorities then rendered aid to the victims, but both of them succumbed to their injuries.
“We are responding to a shooting in the 3600 block of S. Las Vegas Boulevard. The shooting did not occur inside a casino. Please avoid the area,” the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police said in a statement on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Suspect and victim engaged in some kind of conflict in the past
During the presser, Walsh stated that the authorities had identified the suspect of Sunday night’s incident. He maintained that the shooting is being classified as an isolated incident since the police learned that the suspect and victim had previously engaged in some type of conflict using “a variety of social media platforms.”
“At this point, every effort is being made by members of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Department to locate, apprehend, and arrest the suspect, who’s responsible for this crime,” Walsh told local reporters. According to Fox News, the reported shooting was captured during a live stream on the strip.
The two people were seen dropping to the ground while others appeared to take cover after the shooter started open firing in a crowded area. At the end of the presser, Walsh urged the public to call the Crime Stoppers hotline at 702-385-5555 for any information about the suspect, who remains at large.
