YouTuber Finny Da Legend has died after being shot near an iconic hotel in Las Vegas. The YouTube star was killed alongside another person, believed to be Finny's partner, near the Bellagio hotel and casino on the Las Vegas strip on Sunday night.

Finny had more than 3000 subscribers on YouTube and was actually streaming live when it happened. A man, another content creator, came up to him. Footage shared online showed that at least seven shots were fired.

It is believed that alongside Finny, his partner was killed too, as reported by KVVU-TV. In the harrowing footage, Finny's partner could be heard screaming. They said: "Are you f**king kidding me?" and the camera was then thrown to the ground.

Police had said that the shooter and one of the victims had argued on social media. Manuel Ruiz, 41, turned himself into police hours later, with the cops issuing a statement: "At this point, we believe we have the suspect identified and that this is an isolated incident, knowing that the suspect and the victim had previously engaged in some type of conflict using a variety of social media platforms."

Praising his friend, Derek Ware spoke of Finny's life away from social media, as a son, a father and a grandfather. He said: "He’s a good father. He takes care of his kids. If something was wrong, he would just always check up on me. He’s donated to people that needed help online." Of Finny's wife, he added: "She would have fun everywhere she went. People wanted to be around her."
