A 41-year-old man has been arrested after two people were killed in a shooting on the Las Vegas Strip late on Sunday. The suspect turned himself in at Henderson Police Station early Monday, where he was taken into custody and charged  in the Clark County Detention Center with two counts of open murder with a deadly weapon.

Police said that the incident was a targeted killing that followed an online argument. Video captured the suspect, identified as Manuel Ruiz, allegedly executing down two people on the Las Vegas strip, feet away fro bystanders who were filming the famed Bellagio Casino fountains. The graphic footage, obtained by TMZ, showed the tourists milling about on the sidewalk before the suspect, who was wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, came into view brandishing the firearm. Ruiz then suddenly opened fire on Las Vegas Boulevard outside the Bellagio just after 10:30 p.m. on Sunday. Clark County Coroner’s Office did not release the identities of the victims as of press time.

LVMPD Undersheriff Andrew Walsh said during a press conference that police on patrol near the Bellagio Hotel & Casino heard gunshots at about 10:40 p.m. Las Vegas Metro Police said as officers arrived on the scene, they found two people with gunshot wounds, both of whom were later pronounced dead A statement from the LVMPD said that: “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. At this time, we believe this to be an isolated incident.”
