Students were gathered just outside Beam Hall “playing games and eating food” at the time of the shooting, McMahill said. Two university police detectives “immediately engaged the suspect in a shootout” that resulted in the gunman’s death, University Police Chief Adam Garcia said.

The suspect continued to “multiple floors,” McMahill said, before he was “neutralized” outside the building. He began shooting on the fourth floor of Beam Hall, a building on campus, Las Vegas Police Sheriff Kevin McMahill said. The suspect has not been named but according to law enforcement sources is a man in his 60s.
