LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The suspect in a shooting and six-hour standoff on the north end of the Las Vegas Strip on Saturday has been identified as a 39-year-old U.S. Military veteran.

Jail records identified the suspect as Andrew Mullen, 39, who police say was arrested following a lengthy standoff in the area of Las Vegas Boulevard and St. Louis Avenue.

Mullen was booked into the Clark County Detention Center for 13 charges, including battery with a deadly weapon, resisting a public officer with a firearm, and 11 counts of discharging a firearm inside an occupied vehicle or structure. He is being held on a bond of $150,000, court records show. Mullen's status as a veteran was also noted in court records.

According to information from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, officers were initially called to reports of a shooting in the 1800 block of Main Street at 8:15 a.m. Saturday. Police confirmed a woman was shot and described her injuries as non-life-threatening.

Police say the suspect, since identified as Mullen, "refused to surrender" and barricaded himself inside a business, prompting a SWAT response. After six hours of back-and-forth with crisis negotiators, police say Mullen surrendered and was taken into custody.
