Las Vegas Strip shooting linked to YouTube feud leaves two dead

A deadly shooting on the Las Vegas Strip has left the community reeling after a YouTube feud escalated into violence, resulting in the deaths of popular YouTuber Rodney Finley, known as Finny Da Legend, and his wife, Tanisha Finley. The incident, which was captured in a graphic video, shows a person firing a gun at the couple.

The Las Vegas Metro Police Department held a brief news conference near the site of the shooting, stating that no arrests had been made at that time. However, the suspect, Manny Ruiz, later turned himself in and now faces two open murder charges.

Ruiz reportedly felt that Finny was encroaching on his streaming territory, according to other YouTubers. A YouTube fan commented to News 3, "[Ruiz] is, you know, demanding that you can't go here, you can't do that. And a lot of people did not like that, so he began losing his streamers."
