Nevada police released bodycam footage Wednesday of a July 28 shootout with a lone suspect in Reno.
Police say the footage shows the suspect, 26-year-old Dakota Hawver, opening fire on Reno Police Department officers as soon as they arrived. Hawver, who died after an exchange of gunfire with police, had opened fire on a crowd at the valet outside the Grand Sierra Resort casino, killing three people.
Hawver fled before running into a resort security guard, opening fire and fleeing once again. The bodycam footage from Reno police shows officers encountering him shortly afterward.
Dash camera footage from multiple vehicles shows Hawver pointing his gun at police and opening fire even as officers commanded him to drop the weapon.

Multiple police officers then opened fire, and Hawver retreated behind a nearby semitruck. Officers continued to fire until it became clear Hawver was struck, at which point multiple officers stopped firing.
Body camera footage of an officer with a long gun shows police approaching Hawver as he lay behind the semitruck with blood splattered on the ground.
Police apprehended Hawver and transported him to a nearby hospital, where he died of his injuries days later.

The three people killed when Hawver opened fire at the valet were identified as Justin Aguila and Andrew Canepa, both 33 years old and from Southern California and Nevada man Angel Martinez, 66.
Police say they have found no connection between Hawver and the victims. Police have also not determined a motive or a link between Hawver and the casino.
