UNLV shooting: Las Vegas police say suspect in university shooting found dead | BBC News


Police in Las Vegas are responding to an active shooter alert at the Las Vegas campus of the University of Nevada.

They said there appeared to be "multiple victims at this time" near the university’s Beam Hall building.

The university tweeted at around 11:53 local time (19:53 GMT) that police were responding to reports of shots fired on campus.

Las Vegas police later said the suspect "had been located" and was dead.

In a post on social media, the university had initially warned students at Beam Hall to "evacuate to a safe area" and to "RUN-HIDE-FIGHT", which is a common active shooter protocol in the US.

In another post around 20 minutes later, the university alerted students to reports of shots near the Student Union building.
