The Reno Police Department arrested a 32-year-old man in connection to a hotel shooting that happened early Tuesday morning.Â
Reno police responded to a hotel room on the 1800 block of South Virginia street at around 4:30 a.m. on January 23. There, officers found a man who had been shot. The victim was transporter to the hospital for his injuries.
Investigators identified the shooter as 32-year-old Mario Cisneros. Police say Cisneros' ex-girlfriend and two others were staying in the hotel room when he arrived armed with a gun. A male exited the room and was immediately attacked and was shot. Police say Cisneros entered the room and struck the female victim with the gun.
