Four people were injured Thursday when a gunman opened fire inside a Las Vegas medical facility.
The Metropolitan Police Department said a man fired a gun inside the Center for Wellness and Pain Care of Las Vegas, on the 300 block of North Buffalo Drive just south of Summerlin Parkway, about 3:30 p.m. before shooting himself. The man died at the scene.
Police spokeswoman Laura Meltzer said the man was a regular patient at the medical facility who on Thursday walked into the office and requested an unscheduled appointment. When he was denied, he began shooting, striking two employees.
The employees shot were taken to University Medical Center’s trauma unit, but as of 5 p.m. police said they were not in critical condition and expected to live.
