LAS VEGAS (AP) — 14 people were shot before dawn Saturday morning at a hookah parlor & police said 1 man died & that 2 of those hit by gunfire suffered critical injuries.
The shooting happened at about 3:15 a.m. & preliminary information indicated there was a party during which 2 people got into an altercation & exchanged gunfire, striking multiple people, said police Capt. Dori Koren.
Koren told reporters no arrests have been made & no suspect descriptions were immediately available but that authorities did not believe there was any danger to the general public.
Police went to the hookah bar identified as Manny’s Glow Ultra Lounge & Restaurant after receiving multiple 911 calls.
Officers secured the scene & rendered aid, including applying tourniquets & administering CPR.
Investigators were trying to determine the types of gun or guns used in the shooting.
”It’s a fairly large scene so it’s going so take some time to go through the entire scene,” he said. “We’re not really sure exactly what kind of weapon was used, or exactly if there were two shooters. We believe there was an exchange of gunfire, but we’re still looking into all of information.”
The medical aid provided to victims by the officers who initially responded “definitely made a significance in this case.”
Hookahs are water pipes that are used to smoke specially made tobacco that comes in different flavors.
Hours after the shooting, much of shopping plaza where the shooting occurred remained cordoned off by police tape as officers looked for stray bullets & other evidence.
