LAS VEGAS (AP) – Fourteen people were shot during a party at a Las Vegas lounge, including one man who was killed and two others who were critically wounded.

The shooting happened about 3.15am and preliminary information indicated there was a party during which two people got into an altercation and exchanged gunfire, said police Captain Dori Koren.

Koren told reporters no arrests have been made and no suspect descriptions were immediately available but that authorities did not believe there was any danger to the general public.

Police went to the parlor identified by the Las Vegas Review-Journal as Manny’s Glow Ultra Lounge and Restaurant after receiving multiple 911 calls, Koren said.

Officers secured the scene and rendered aid, including applying tourniquets and administering CPR, Koren said.

Investigators were trying to determine the types of gun or guns used in the shooting.

”It’s a fairly large scene so it’s going so take some time to go through the entire scene,” he said. “We’re not really sure exactly what kind of weapon was used, or exactly if there were two shooters. We believe there was an exchange of gunfire, but we’re still looking into all of information.”
