Multiple people have been shot at a casino in Reno, Nevada, and a suspect is in custody.
The shooting happened at the Grand Sierra Resort around 7:25 a.m. in the valet area, according to the Reno Police Department.
Reno police spokesperson Chris Johnson said an adult male suspect was in custody and had been hospitalized in unknown condition.
Multiple people were shot, Johnson said, but added that their conditions were not immediately known. Police have not said how many people were injured or if there are any fatalities.
A spokesperson with the Washoe County Sheriff’s Department said the shooting involved an officer at the Grand Sierra Resort.
Police are urging the public to stay away from the casino while they respond to the “critical incident.”
“My heart breaks for the victims, their families, and our entire community,” Devon Reese, a member of the Reno City Council, said in a social media post.
“Reno is strong — but we are not immune to the epidemic of gun violence gripping this nation.”
This is a developing story.
