LAS VEGAS — Gunshots were fired during a burglary Saturday at a high-end retail store inside a Las Vegas, The Associated Press reported.
Casino police said they are investigating the incident, which took place inside the Bellagio Hotel and Casino.
In a statement Saturday, police said that a preliminary investigation suggests that at least three people entered the store and one of them fired gunshots. No one was injured and a suspect was taken into custody.
Authorities said initial reports indicated there was an active shooter but that proved to be false. Parts of the casino property were closed as police investigated.
One witness posted a picture on Twitter of a person in a pig mask, saying he or she tried to flee but was arrested.
