LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Las Vegas police are investigating an early Saturday morning shooting near the Strip.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Frank Humel says officers were flagged down at around 4:15 a.m. in the 4000 block of Linq Lane with reports of shots fired at the Stage Door Casino.

Preliminary information indicates there was a fight in the parking lot and a short time later, a vehicle drove past the bar and shot into the crowd.

Three people suffered gunshot wounds in the incident and were transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to authorities.

Police remained at the scene for most of the morning with a portion of Flamingo Road closed for the investigation.

The bar later tweeted that it will remain closed until Tuesday.
