We're learning new details about the shooting at the Grand Sierra Resort last week.

According to court documents, the two suspects who had been identified as 26-year-old Seth Hegne and 32-year-old Colton Fagundes conspired to kill 32-year-old Conor Housden.

The documents say police found Housden shot four times in a room at the Grand Sierra Resort just before 6:30 a.m. on Tuesday.

The documents said Fagundes had been staying at the hotel room in the days leading up to the shooting, and had allegedly been drinking and doing cocaine and methamphetamine.

The documents said Fagundes had been acting erratically on the night before the shooting but then left the GSR around 5:30 a.m. before returning about half an hour later with Hegne to commit the shooting.
