The Skanner News - Vegas Shooter Who Killed 3 Was a Professor Who Recently Applied for a Job at UNLV, AP Source Says

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Three people are dead and a fourth in critical but stable condition after a gunman opened fire at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas before police killed him in a shootout. Wednesday's attack had terrified students and professors cowering in classrooms. A law enforcement official with direct knowledge of the investigation tells The Associated Press that the shooter was a professor who'd unsuccessfully sought a job at the school. The campus is only a couple of miles from the Las Vegas Strip, where the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history took place in October 2017. Police say lessons learned from that tragedy helped them confront Wednesday's attack.
