The concert venue was an outdoor one as named Las Vegas Village across the strip from the Mandalay Bay and the Luxor hotels.

A 64 old man Stephen Paddock identified the gunman as area resident but no information on motive yet disclosed, he took up raining down rapid fire from the 32nd floor of a hotel for several minutes before he was shot dead by police. Though death toll is preliminary and tentative as it could make the attack the deadliest mass shooting in US history. Thousand were gathered for the music festival people panicked fled the scene and many spots with trampling on one another in hurry to flee from the sight.  The horrific scene was witnessed as shocked concertgoers, some with blood on their clothes wandered the streets after the attack.

The information of gunman released said was not related or connected to any military group Lombard reports right now we believe he was the sole aggressor and the scene is static, we have located numerous firearms within the room that he occupied. Authorities believed Paddock’s roommate who they identified as Marilou Danley. He gave no details of whether she was suspected of involvement in the attack but describe her as an associate’. As US officials see a reason to believe that Paddock had a history of Psychological problems. Lombard said there were more 10 rifles in the room where Paddock killed himself

After last year’s massacre of 49killed  at an Orlando nightclub, these could create again in US history be on the list, as Las Vegas’s casinos, and nightclubs and shopping draw 3.5 million visitors around each year the area at the incident was packed with visitors when the shooting broke out shortly after 10 pm. Many casinos in the area locked their doors during the incident to keep out any potential attackers.

Aldean said on Instagram ” Tonight  has been beyond horrific” it hurts my heart that this would happen to anyone who was just coming out to enjoy what should have been a fun night. He was performing artist when the incident took place.

The trump called upon mourn and flag pulled to half-staff, then President trump and First lady lead a moment of silence on Monday afternoon on the white house South lawn to honour the victims of the deadly Las Vegas Shooting as “act of the pure evil”.

My warmest condolences and sympathies to the victims and families of the terrible Las Vegas shooting. God bless you!
