Before I say anything; it looks as though the guy with the gun was trying to walk away from the confrontation? The aggressor pursued. The aggressor was then shot.
Im not sure how gun laws are in Vegas? Was this legal use of a firearm? Assuming he has a concealed carry?
A "stand your ground" state, Nevada requires no "duty to retreat" before killing in self-defense as long as the person fighting back: is not the original aggressor, has a right to be in the place where deadly force is used, and. is not engaging in criminal activity.

All I could find...
The suspect(s) has not been found as of 8 p.m. and was believed to have run northbound on the Strip after the shooting.
He's black.... they are unfortunately going to throw the book at him.
Its vegas, he was 100% on multiple security cameras, and if he used his debit/credit card anywhere before that shooting, they'll get his identity soon.Not a good look that the guy fled the scene.
That could mean he'ss not legally carrying and therefore not justified - if so. That or he's afraid for his life via the police.
He's on camera so I imagine he'll be apprehended eventually.
Here's what I found...
Appears to be justified. The dude pursued him and swung on him.
He was walking away though...Are you sure that's justified? Maybe in the wild west or if the guy had a gun or knife. You don't shoot someone for swinging at you. You run away.
He pulled out a gun and shot without warning.
Gonna be hard to convince people you had to elevate to lethal force because a guy slapped you with a t-shirt.Before I say anything; it looks as though the guy with the gun was trying to walk away from the confrontation? The aggressor pursued. The aggressor was then shot.

Then Rittenhause or whatever his fucking name is will surely get convicted...Gonna be hard to convince people you had to elevate to lethal force because a guy slapped you with a t-shirt.

Yea I was there last week and there was a fight going in front of the Bellagio. I was on the other side and my eyesight ain't great but the screaming and sirens gave it away.Just came back from Vegas and The Strip has been hot with shootings, and fights. It got so bad that the Cosmopolitan hotel is using strict security and searching when entering the hotel. O left the strip about 1 hour before a fight broke out at the front of The Mirage
Their local news on TV air stories about it.
Cool source you got yourself there
