US university shooting kills three people, injures one severely: police reports

It has been reported that three people have been killed and another has been critically injured as a result of a shooting at a Las Vegas university on Wednesday, police said. The suspect was also killed in the shooting.

It is well known that gun violence in the United States is a part of the fabric of daily life for the vast majority of the population, and this incident took place at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, just a short walk from the gambling hub’s tourist-packed Las Vegas Strip.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department told its social media followers that their investigators at the scene said there were three deceased victims and another victim who was in critical condition at a nearby hospital.

As well as this #ActiveShooter incident, the suspect is deceased as well.”

US university shooting kills three people, injures one severely: police reports,It has been reported that police responded to calls around midday (2000 GMT) and indicated that officers had engaged a suspect on the campus, where gunshots have been heard in at least two different places on campus.

Several police military-style vehicles were seen moving near the containment lines in television footage, as well as dozens of young people being escorted through these lines by police officers.

KVVU reported that a woman told them that she heard loud noises. She fled into a campus building, where she was later evacuated by police after hearing loud noises.

According to the station, she was just having breakfast when she heard three loud booms, coming from all directions at once.

“Then two more, and the police came to the scene and ran inside the house… but after two minutes, boom, boom, boom, more shots, so I ran into a basement, and we stayed in the basement for about 20 minutes.”

Following the shooting that erupted three hours ago, the university continued to urge people to shelter in place. It said that police were working to clear each building in turn and that the investigation was still in progress.

As law enforcement may come to your door shortly, the university advises you to follow directions, follow your hands, and exit calmly. This is with your hands visible at all times.

In an interview with CNN, Brett Forrest, a reporter from the local news station KSNV, said that he had been on campus for an assignment and that dozens of students and faculty members were sheltering in place as they awaited police announcement of the all-clear.

As far as we know, they are coming building by building, slowly letting out each building making sure that there are no additional victims or anyone else inside, so they might take a while to complete their mission.

According to the Federal Aviation Administration, flights into the nearby international airport were halted for the remainder of the day, as well as universities in the area closed for the rest of the day.

As one of the world’s most popular gambling and entertainment hubs, Las Vegas attracts millions of visitors every year, many of whom come to see sporting events and other large-scale entertainment.

In February, the city will host its inaugural Formula One Grand Prix, as well as the annual Super Bowl, the showcase final of the professional American football season, which took place in the city last month.

Despite this, the city was also the scene of one of America’s deadliest mass shootings, when a gunman opened fire on a crowded music festival in the city in 2017, killing 60 people in the process.

There is no doubt that mass shootings in the United States are alarmingly common, a country where there are more guns than people and where attempts to prevent them from spreading are always met with stiff opposition.

US university shooting kills three people, injures one severely: police reports, According to the Gun Violence Archive, a nongovernmental organization that defines a mass shooting as one that kills or injures four or more people, the United States has seen over 600 mass shootings so far this year.

As of Monday, the Washington Post, a news outlet that keeps tabs on mass shootings, said that there had been 38 incidents in which at least four people had been killed as of Monday.

Gun control efforts have for a long time been stalled by opposition from the Republican Party. These members are staunch defenders of what they see as an unfettered right to weaponry under the Constitution.

Political paralysis persists despite widespread outrage over shootings.
