One woman is dead and a man fighting for life after a disgruntled employee opened fire on a picnic full of executives.

Anthony Wroble is on the run accused of gunning down two Venetian Hotel bosses as they ate in Sunset Park in Las Vegas about 6pm on Sunday.

He allegedly shot the woman dead first at a picnic table in the popular park in the city’s south, then turned the gun on a man before fleeing.

The woman, aged in her mid-50s, was killed at the scene and the man, also in his 50s, was rushed to Sunrise Hospital in critical condition.

Police called the shooting an act of workplace violence and were hunting the 42-year-old who is ‘considered armed and dangerous’.

‘This is an isolated incident. This is an act of workplace violence. The individuals at the table were the targets of the shooter,’ police said.

His car was found at the airport but his whereabouts are unknown. ‘We are actively tracking him to try to find his location,’ police said.

Wroble was a dealer at the casino, and according to a 2010 bankruptcy filing which listed his debts at more than $300,000, he worked there since 2003. 

Police said he was five feet, nine inches tall and weighed 197 pounds.
