A shooting at a gym in Las Vegas on Friday afternoon resulted in the deaths of two people, including the shooter, and left at least three others injured, according to police reports.

The incident took place at the Las Vegas Athletic Club on the west side of the city, where gunfire broke out, leaving one victim dead, Undersheriff Andrew Walsh of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police reported.

Officials stated that officers shot the suspect, who was carrying a gun, as he attempted to flee the scene. The suspect was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital, as confirmed by the police on social media.

Police said three people who were injured were transported to local hospitals, with one in critical condition.

Walsh said there was no longer a threat to the public.

Officials said they were still investigating a motive.

“They said ‘Get out, get out, get out,'” Claudio Vigani, a witness who was at the gym when the shooting began, told KLAS-TV. “Then I saw the dead guy next to the machine.”

Gary Steward, who was headed to the gym with another person, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that a stop at a nutrition store saved their lives. He said if they hadn’t stopped, they would have been at the front desk where the shooter entered. They saw glass breaking as they walked up to the gym and ran back to the parking lot.

“It’s just a weird feeling right now,” Steward said. “It’s strange. Who shoots up a gym?”

Calls to the athletic club and its corporate office went unanswered.
