Updated January 28, 2019 - 8:24 pm

A man is expected to survive after being shot Sunday evening in Henderson, police said.

Police received a report of gunshots about 6 p.m. and responded to the 1000 block of American Pacific Drive, near Gibson Road, Henderson officer Katrina Rothmeyer said. There they found a man suffering from a gunshot wound.

He was taken to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center, where his condition had stabilized and he was expected to survive, Rothmeyer said.

The shooter was still at large, Rothmeyer said about 8 p.m. Thursday. The preliminary investigation indicated the shooting appeared to be the result of a neighbor dispute, she said.

Nearby Touro University Nevada had temporarily advised students to shelter in place, according to message alerts sent out to students. The college gave an all-clear alert about 8:15 p.m.

American Pacific was closed but has since reopened.
