LAS VEGAS – Hysteria occurred Wednesday when a shooting was reported at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. At least three people were wounded and the gunman is dead, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
The 11:45 a.m. shooting occurred at Beam Hall, officials at UNLV said. This is the home to the business school, as well as the student union, which is next door. Officers responded and “engaged” the suspect, officials confirmed, ABC News reported.
Sheriff Kevin McMahill said there are three victims whose conditions are unknown. He added, “That number could change.”

Flights were temporarily paused at Las Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport during the confusion due to the close proximity of the airport runways to UNLV, and since the law enforcement response included air support, according to an official briefed on the incident.
