TL;DR Summary

Police officers responding to a shooting at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas mistakenly directed the gunman, Anthony Polito, out of the building, thinking he was a bystander, according to body camera footage. The footage shows Polito calmly walking through the first floor of the business school while officers searched for the suspect and victims. Polito later engaged in a shootout with university police officers and was killed. The officers did not initially know they encountered the gunman inside the building, as they did not have a description of the shooter at the time. The motive for the shooting remains unclear.
