The shooting was reported at local time 5:34 p.m. (0134 GMT, Saturday) and as of local time 6:45 p.m. (0245 GMT, Saturday), police disclosed at least two of the shooting victims had died from their injuries while other three victims had non-life-threatening wounds.
A spokesperson from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department described the victims as "unhoused," the report said, adding the attacker was still at large.
