Details are emerging about the dozens of people killed in Sunday's mass shooting at a Las Vegas country music festival.
An
off-duty police officer, a 20-year-old college student, and a nurse
from Tennessee were among the 59 confirmed fatalities. At least 527 more
were injured in the attack by a gunman who opened fire on a crowd of
about 22,000 concertgoers attending the Route 91 Harvest festival.
The man who killed 59 people and injured 527 others in a mass shooting in Las Vegas was a big-spending gambler who took 23 guns into his hotel room before opening fire on crowds attending an outdoor music festival.
Stephen Craig Paddock sprayed bullets on revellers enjoying the Route 91
Harvest Festival from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel and
Casino.
Police have described Paddock as a ‘psychopath’.
The 64-year-old retired accountant from Mesquite, Nevada, killed himself before officers stormed Room 135 in the gold-coloured glass skyscraper.
Assistant sheriff Todd Fasulo said Paddock had 23 guns – some with scopes – in his hotel room. Authorities found 19 more guns at his home in Mesquite, as well as explosives and thousands of rounds of ammunition.
