A YouTuber is accused of shooting dead a rival and his wife during a livestream on the Las Vegas strip after a year-long feud.

Manuel Diaz Ruiz, 41, walked into the Henderson Police Department on Monday morning and turned himself in after Sunday night’s shooting.

He is behind bars at the Clark County Detention Center charged with two counts of open murder with a deadly weapon.

Ruiz, also known as ‘SinCity-MannyWise’, reportedly killed Rodney Finley, 43, a fellow YouTuber known online as ‘Finny Da Legend’, and Rodney’s wife Tanisha Finley, 43, who is recognized as ‘Bubbly’, around 10:40 pm.

Authorities stated, ‘It is believed that the perpetrator and the victims were acquainted and had previously been involved in disputes on social media before the tragic event.’

The official report from the Clark County Coroner revealed that Tanisha sustained fatal gunshots to her head twice, while Finley succumbed to multiple gunshot wounds. Both fatalities were categorized as homicides.

Finley was livestreaming outside the Bellagio Casino at the time of the shooting, facing across the famous strip to the Paris Casino.

The video showed Finley looking into the camera, which appeared to be on a tripod, before turning away and off to the right.

A man wearing a yellow and black top, baseball cap, and sunglasses – alleged to be Ruiz – appeared in the frame.

Tanisha appeared to be trying to block him from getting to Finley, but he weaved around her and fired several shots as bystanders ducked for cover.

‘Are you f**king kidding me?!’ a horrified Tanisha screamed as she grabbed the camera.

More gunfire could be heard as she and the camera clattered to the ground. Other video from passersby showed her lying dead on the ground with her bottom half covered by a white sheet.

Finley earlier that evening spent more than two hours livestreaming himself and Bubbly wandering around Las Vegas.

Tanisha was wearing the same blue jumpsuit and necklace as in the shooting video, and Finley was wearing a different shirt.

Ruiz posted a video earlier that fans believed was him driving around looking for Finny and allegedly tracking his location via his rival’s livestream.

‘I went through every f**king casino there is… I heard there was one of my biggest fans here in town, I’m dying to see him,’ he said.

‘Come to my city and think I’m not gonna show up? I should have been the first one to be told, somebody should have sent me my invite.’

Ruiz then began aggressively barking like a dog and added: ‘Wherever you you go I will be there… I have to say hi to my biggest fan.

‘When I heard [that he was in town] I jumped out of my bed, I came here so f**king fast.’

The two YouTubers have had beef for more than a year, which other vloggers said started when Ruiz pepper-sprayed Tanisha in 2023. 

More than 50 videos still up on Finley’s profile attacked Ruiz and the ‘Sin City Family’ of YouTubers associated with him.

One of the videos about six months ago claimed he received a death threat from Ruiz. Finley also filed a harassment complaint earlier this year.

Ruiz’s partner Julie Pimentel AKA ‘SinCity Julie’ or ‘PManny’ was recorded at the scene later but is not believed to be a suspect.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police said officers responded to a shooting on the 3600 block of S Las Vegas Boulevard at 10.40pm. 

They said that offers found two people with apparent gunshot wounds, who were pronounced dead at the scene by medical personnel. 

‘At this time, we believe this to be an isolated incident, and a possible suspect has been identified, police said.

The shooting harks back to the 2017 mass shooting when 64-year-old Stephen Paddock opened fire on the crowd attending the Route 91 Harvest music festival from his 32nd-floor suites in the Mandalay Bay hotel. 

The shooter fired over 1,000 rounds and killed 60, additionally wounding at least 413 others. 

The stampede caused by panicked people rushing out of the area brought the total number of injured people to nearly 870. 

Just one hour after the shooting, Paddock was found dead in room after taking his own life. 

To this day, the motive for the attack has not been officially determined.
