CHAOS ERUPTS AT CASINO by; Rick McCann www.privateofficer.com
LAS VEGAS NV JULY 6 2007-----All of the people who were hurt in a shooting incident at a Las Vegas casino overnight have now been treated and released.
Four people received minor injuries from the gunfire, and another was hurt in the crush of people fleeing the casino.
One tourist from Florida describes the scene as "crazy, pandemonium." Police say 16 shots were fired in all.
A Las Vegas man (Steven Zegrean) is in custody on felony charges including attempted murder. Police describe him as "emotionally distraught," and they say the shooting had nothing to do with terrorism.
They say he emptied a semiautomatic handgun toward the casino floor before he was tackled by a US Army reservist, a Navy reservist and others.
Police say a casino surveillance video shows the shooting.
A woman who says she's a cousin of the alleged shooter says he's been threatening family members recently, and that he hasn't been "able to relate."
