A gunman opened fire inside a Nevada medical office on Tuesday afternoon, killing one person and wounded two others before killing himself, officials said.
The wounded victims were in surgery, and one of them is a doctor, the Nevada Department of Public Safety said.
The gunman killed himself after firing off several rounds in the Center for Advanced Medicine and Neurology on the Renown Medical Center complex at about 2 p.m. local time on Tuesday, police said.
“We have two people confirmed deceased in the building, two others injured,” Reno Police Department’s Deputy Chief Tom Robinson told reporters.
Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Gail Powell told The Associated Press that the wounded doctor is a woman, but she had no information on the other victims or the gunman.
The motive for the attack remained unclear.
The medical center was put on lockdown amid the chaos of the shooting scene as police, including SWAT team vehicles, surrounded the sprawling medical complex and closed off a three-block area near downtown Reno.
Gov. Brian Sandoval said on Twitter that he and his staff were monitoring the situation and his thoughts and prayers were with those affected by the tragedy.
