2:46Now PlayingWARNING: DISTRESSING CONTENT. Wild video shows the moment cops took out a killer gunman who shot up a Las Vegas gym — where he was planning a mass killing before his gun jammed, according to officials.
Daniel Ortega, 34, was caught on surveillance footage casually strolling into the Las Vegas Athletic Club last Friday afternoon armed with a huge rifle.
Ortega had approached an employee at the front desk before he briefly paced around and exchanged words with another worker, the surveillance clip shows.
He then suddenly lifted his gun and started firing as the employee tried to flee, police said.
Ortega managed to pump out a total of 24 rounds in the gym lobby, killing 31-year-old gym manager Edgar Quinonez and injuring three others.
Police now believe he was planning more death, but was thwarted by his gun jamming.
