LAS VEGAS, NEVADA — A resident of Turnberry Towers, located near Karen and Paradise, is hailing a building employee a hero after a man with an AR-15 and other firearms, while wearing a helmet, opened fire at the front desk as he walked into the building.
Part of the incident was captured on camera and released to the public, reportedly showing the suspect fire through the doors. As he went through the second set of doors, it appears he is hit by return gunfire from the concealed carrying employee.

The suspect is said to have been taken to the hospital and is in critical condition.
Details on the incident are scarce, but it appears that this could have been an isolated incident, based on the video located here. In that video, the suspect is seen waiting outside the lobby as people are getting off the elevator and walking by, seemingly uninterested in them. What might be even more bizarre is how none of the people seem to notice the man with a rifle, and no one seems to be moving in a hurry to distance themselves from him.
We will update this article with any additional details if they become available.
