There is "no further threat" on campus, LVMPD Sheriff Kevin McMahill told a press briefing.
A number of victims have been taken to hospitals, according to the police.
"This is an active investigation. Please continue to avoid the area and watch for responding emergency units," LVMPD said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
