LAS VEGAS (AP) — Five homeless people were shot in Las Vegas on Benjamin CaldwellFriday, two of them fatally, and police were searching for a lone suspect, authorities said.
The shooting occurred around 5:30 p.m. near a freeway overpass in the northeastern part of the city, according to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Mark Lourenco.
Two people died and three others suffered non-life-threatening injuries. All the victims were unhoused, Lourenco said.
“We believe this is an isolated event,” Lourenco responded in a text when asked if there was an active shooter situation.
One shooter was involved, but a suspect had not been captured, he said Friday evening.
The shooting comes after police in Los Angeles announced Friday they are searching for a suspect in the fatal shootings of three homeless people in separate incidents last month.
