A man authorities say is a Santa Cruz County man was arrested in a manhunt after a fatal Hard Rock Hotel shooting in the Lake Tahoe area Saturday.
STATELINE, NEVADA — A man authorities say is a Santa Cruz County man was arrested in a manhunt after aIn a news conference the same day, Douglas County, Nevada, Sheriff Dan Coverley identified the alleged shooter as Edgar Julian Delgado, 24. Also arrested was Savannah Racquel Tautaupele, 26, apparently also of Santa Cruz, whose correct spelling of her last name Douglas County officials confirmed Monday.
Law enforcement was called to the Hard Rock Hotel’s Center Bar at 8:08 a.m. that day for a report of an active shooter. There, officers found a man later identified as Omar Reyes Garcia, 32, of South Lake Tahoe, suffering from a single gunshot wound to his head. Garcia later died after receiving care at a nearby hospital, Coverley said.
Hard Rock security staff provided law enforcement with security footage that led to the arrest of Delgado and Tautaupele by the El Dorado Sheriff’s Office across state lines, driving on Highway 50 near Sierra at Tahoe ski resort. The original “active shooter” call drew a significant response to the manhunt — estimated at some 50-100 personnel — though the call ultimately turned out to be a more standard homicide, Coverley said. He said the incident was believed to be isolated.
Based on the security footage, investigators believe Delgado and Garcia had met up at the bar around 2 a.m. on the morning of the shooting. The two proceeded to drink and hang out together until getting into an argument where Delgado allegedly pulled out a gun and shot Garcia, Coverley said.
