Police have identified the three people who were killed during shootings Monday outside a Reno casino, as well as the suspect.
The suspect is Dakota Hawver, a 26-year-old Reno resident, who remains in critical condition in a hospital after Reno police officers shot him during an exchange of gunfire, according to the Sparks Police Department, the lead agency in the investigation.
Hawver was armed with a 9mm handgun and fired approximately 80 rounds, using multiple magazines, Sparks police said in a news release posted on Facebook. He bought the gun legally two years ago and the ammunition recently, police said.
Hawver doesn’t have a criminal record or a history of mental health issues, according to Sparks police.
The people who died include two 33-year-old Southern California residents – Andrew Canepa, who co-owned the Side Street Café in the Newbury Park area of Thousand Oaks, and Justin Aguila. The third person was Angel Martinez, 66, who lived in the Reno/Sparks area.
GoFundMe pages have raised thousands of dollars for the victims’ family members. There are pages for the families of Martinez, Aguila and Canepa, as well as one for Canepa’s 6-year-old son Kayden.
