The man police say shot two people at Caesars Palace over the weekend has turned himself in. Las Vegas Police say 34-year-old Richard Earl Shepherd Junior surrendered with his lawyer just before noonWednesday at the Clark County Detention Center.
Police had been looking for Shepherd since the shooting early Saturday morning on the Strip property. Both victims have been released from the hospital. Investigators believe the dispute may have been over a woman.
In light of recent events such as the bombing at the Luxor, the shooting at the New York, New York and this one at Caesars Palace, Metro is stepping up security.
"If someone wants to take a gun and walk into a casino, it can be done but hopefully it won't be done. and this is an incident where we're happy it was very minimal as far as injuries," Captain Al Salinas with Metro said.
Shepherd is facing multiple counts, including attempted murder.
