Gunfire erupted at a Northern Nevada hotel and casino on Monday with multiple people hurt before police captured the alleged gunman, authorities said.
Police rushed to the Grand Sierra Resort and Casino in Reno after receiving calls for help at about 7:25 a.m. PDT, officials said.
A suspect was taken into custody and there’s no ongoing threat, authorities said.
The incident began outside, near the valet area, and no one inside the casino was harmed, police said.
State authorities and Washoe County Sheriff’s deputies also responded to the scene to help Reno police, Gov. Joe Lombardo said in a statement.
“While we wait for more information, please join Donna and me in praying for the victims and their families and for our brave first responders,” said Lombardo, who was sheriff of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department in 2017 when 58 people were gunned down near the Mandalay Bay Hotel.
Shooter Stephen Paddock opened fire from his 32nd floor suite, slaughtering dozens of music lovers below who were attending the Route 91 Harvest Festival.
