Two Shot Dead Near Landmark Vegas Fountain

Two people were shot to death on the Vegas strip Sunday night, and police say the violence appears to have escalated from a dispute on social media. The unidentified victims were shot about 10:40pm near the famous fountain of the Bellagio Resort & Casino, reports KSNV and the AP. The shooter remains at large, but police have a suspect in mind:

• "It is believed that the suspect and the victims knew each other and had previously engaged in conflict over social media prior to the shooting," the Vegas police department wrote in a news release.
• Police didn't provide any details about the social media dispute but characterized the shooting as an "isolated incident."
