One person has reportedly died after a gunman opened fire in Las Vegas in front of the city’s famous Ballagio hotel fountains.
The shooting, on the Las Vegas Strip, was caught on camera as a bystander happened to be filming a livestream at the time.
Seven shots are heard, while a witness shouts, ‘Are you f***ing kidding me?’
A man, thought to be the gunman, is seen wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, while people run for cover.
The video was shared on social media but has since been taken down.
Las Vegas police, who have locked down the area, said they were called to the scene at 10.40pm on Sunday (5.40am GMT) and that a homicide investigation has been launched.
They earlier posted on social media: ‘We are responding to a shooting in the 3600 block of S. Las Vegas Boulevard.
‘The shooting did not occur inside a casino. Please avoid the area.’
Undersheriff Andrew Walsh is due to give a media briefing from Las Vegas at around 1.45am local time (9.45am GMT).
