"Chaotic Mistake: Police Misidentify UNLV Gunman as Bystander in Campus Massacre"

Newly released bodycam footage from the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) mass shooting on December 6, 2021, shows that police mistook the gunman, Anthony Polito, for a bystander and urged him to flee shortly before a shootout with police outside. Polito, a disgruntled professor, walked past the officers without saying anything and headed for the door, where he engaged in a final shootout with police. The footage also reveals the intense search for the active shooter on campus, with officers finding bodies and encountering staff and students hiding in classrooms. Three UNLV professors were killed in the shooting, and one other was wounded.
