LAS VEGAS (AP) — Officials have identified the man and two women killed at a Las Vegas apartment complex shooting.

The two women were named as 33-year-old Veronica Caldwell and 18-year-old Yvonne Rose Reyes. Both died of gunshot wounds to the chest.

Police say a 21-year-old man killed the three people Tuesday before turning the gun on himself.

He was hospitalized in extremely critical condition, where he remains as of Friday.

Authorities say they believe there was a domestic dispute.

Reyes is believed to be Caldwell's stepdaughter and Childers was Reyes' boyfriend.
