in

Terrifying moments unfolded last Friday afternoon (May 16, 2025), as staff and customers at a gym in Las Vegas were caught in the crossfire when a 34-year-old man entered the facility and opened fire indiscriminately, reportedly shooting at least 24 times. The attack resulted in the death of the gym manager and injuries to three other individuals. When Las Vegas authorities received calls about gunshots at the gym, they rushed to the scene, attempting to subdue the shooter. As revealed by surveillance footage that has since gone public, the assailant, identified as 34-year-old Daniel Ortega, had planned a bloodbath but was thwarted when his weapon jammed. In the chilling video documentation, Ortega is seen entering the gym with an automatic weapon. Initially approaching a receptionist, he soon engaged in a heated argument with another employee before raising his weapon and opening fire. Other clips show Ortega leaving the gym moments later, only to be shot once by a police officer, resulting in fatal injuries. So far, the motive behind the attack remains unclear.
