The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department says the number of those injured increased and the gunman may have fired at aviation fuel tanks near the concert. But questions remain about the timeline. ROBERT SIEGEL, HOST:
Authorities are still trying to piece together how a man in a Las Vegas hotel suite was able to shoot at thousands of people at an outdoor concert earlier this month. Questions have been raised about how the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino responded when the gunman shot at a hotel security guard. The Clark County sheriff tried to put those questions to rest at a news conference today, and NPR's Leila Fadel joins us now to talk about it.

Online video of the attack near the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino showed the singer Jason Aldean’s performance at the Route 91 Harvest Festival, a three-day country music event, being interrupted by the sound of gunfire. The music stopped, and as victims fell bleeding, concertgoers screamed, ducked for cover, or ran. “Get down,” one shouted. “Stay down,” screamed another.

Dr. Kevin Menes was the doctor in charge of the emergency room at Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas, which received more than 200 victims with penetrating gunshot wounds. He recently co-authored a piece in Emergency Physicians Monthly detailing the horrors he and his colleagues faced that night and how they handled the 215 patients who arrived at their doorstep.
Menes, who works the weekend nightshift, had been planning for years how he and the hospital would handle a mass casualty incident.
"It's an open secret that Las Vegas is a big target because of its large crowds," Menes said in the Emergency Physicians Monthly piece, which is described as "his story, as told to Judith Tintinalli, MD, MS," and edited by Logan Plaster.
When the shooting started, there were four emergency physicians, one trauma surgeon, and a trauma resident in the ER.

MOTEL STREET BESIDE MANDALAY BAY LAS VEGAS ROUTE 91NICK VEGAS2018-07-15 | Eric Church drew from a difficult period in his own life when he wrote his new single, "Desperate Man." In a new interview, the singer reveals the song was inspired by the emotional aftermath of the mass shooting that took place at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas in October of 2017.
Church headlined the first night of the three-day festival on Sept. 29, and during Jason Aldean's headlining set during the closing night on Oct. 1, a gunman opened fire into the crowd from his hotel room adjacent to the concert site, killing 58 people and wounding hundreds more.
Church wrote and performed a tribute song for the victims of the shooting titled "Why Not Me," but though he put up a brave front in public, he tells Rolling Stone Country that the shootings haunted him so much that it impacted the making of his new album.
“I was a little lost for a while. I think like a lot of people I was in a little bit of a funk after something like that,” he reflects. “I was still a little burned out. A little bit going through the motions. I think that’s part of what happened when I first went into the studio, is I still wasn’t quite ready to get there."
Church teamed with Ray Wylie Hubbard, who he previously name-checked in "Mr. Misunderstood," to co-write "Desperate Man." He says the collaboration helped him kickstart the creative process for the upcoming album of the same name, which he will release on Oct. 5.
“That’s where ‘Desperate Man’ kind of came from,” he states. “I wrote that in the studio. I got a little bit desperate in there to just find an album, because it was not fu--ing happening.”

Another search warrant was executed Monday at a separate home that Paddock owned in Reno, but details weren't released as to what was found in that house.

Jason Aldean was in the midst of his performance when Big Kenny Alphin said chaos enveloped the band's touring vehicles that were located a few blocks away from the stage. A few hundred yards away, the deadliest shooting in modern United States history was underway as a gunman opened fire on a crowd of around 22,000 on the Las Vegas strip.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – Big & Rich performed just hours before Jason Aldean at the Route 91 festival in Las Vegas last Sunday.

Nearly two months after a gunman opened fire on the Route 91 Harvest music festival crowd, Roy McClellan killed himself some 60 miles outside Las Vegas.
His story — one of good days and bad in the struggle against depression — is not unlike others in a community still grieving.
The morning after they had escaped the Oct. 1 mass shooting on the Strip, McClellan told his wife, Denise, “This is really messing with my head.”
Days later, with his wife’s encouragement, he entered counseling and continued for the next seven weeks.
But early on Nov. 17, Roy McClellan lay down in the right lane of state Route 160 near Homestead Road in Pahrump. His wife said she hadn’t heard from him for more than 11 hours. It was shortly after 1:30 a.m. when a Chevrolet Camaro struck him and sped off, investigators said. His death was ruled a suicide last week by the Clark County coroner.
Almost immediately after Oct. 1, Denise McClellan noticed a shift in her husband’s behavior.

But as investigators continue to dig into the 64 year-old millionaire real estate investor's movements and purchases in the months, days and hours leading up to his insane rampage, a more detailed picture has emerged about the meticulous planning that went into Paddock's unthinkable actions.
This is what we know so far about the night of the tragedy and the events leading up to it, according to a timeline from ABC News and a variety of other news sources.

Owen had just taken to the stage with Luke Combs and other performers and was standing just 50 feet from headliner Jason Aldean when he heard what he thought was gunfire.
“It got faster and faster, almost like it sounded like it was an automatic rifle. You could hear it ringing off the tops of the rafters of the stage,” he told TODAY on Monday, just hours after the shooting. “That’s when you saw people fleeing. At that point, everyone on stage just started running everywhere possible. It was pretty chaotic for sure.”
Authorities say a “lone wolf” opened fire into the festival from the 32nd floor of Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on Sunday night. At least 50 people were killed and more than 200 people were injured, authorities said.

Law enforcement officials have stated multiple times that, at this point, they believe that Stephen Paddock, who killed at least 58 and himself and wounded hundreds on Sunday night in Las Vegas, was the only gunman. (Still, Sheriff Joseph Lombardo of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said Wednesday that “it was troublesome that he was able to move this much gear into the hotel unassisted.”)
Assistant Sheriff Todd Fasulo of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department explicitly addressed the issue on Monday night: “I want to emphasize we believe Paddock is solely responsible for this heinous act. We are aware of the rumors outside of the media and also on social media that there was more than one assailant. We have no information or evidence to support that theory or that rumor. We believe there was only one shooter and that was Stephen Paddock.”
A History of Speculation Similar rumor mongering has emerged in the wake of previous mass shootings.
The morning after a gunman opened fire at a nightclub in Orlando, the police dispelled the rumor that he had accomplices. Some falsely believe the Sandy Hook shooting was staged and seized upon a mysterious “man in the woods” as proof of an additional conspirator. The man was searching for his
Regardless of whether this event was a false flag or not, there are many people affected, and many people who require our attention to bring ourselves to a state of processing what happened and ultimately attain peace within ourselves, which results in peace within our world. We can’t lose sight of that even as we dig for truth.
We are being tasked with having to solve serious challenges within our society that stem around anger, hatred, fear, division and so forth. These are not matters of policy or laws, but matters of human consciousness. The challenge is, very few in leadership and forms of power are viewing our challenges in this manner, leaving us approaching our issues with the same useless, strong word I know, attempts we make at trying to stop them. But this is the truth. We must begin to ask deeper questions about how we can shift our states of being and how we address our societal issues if we want to truly create change.
Note: due to how popular this article had gotten in just a few minutes I am editing in a note. In this article we are not saying what this event is in terms of a false flag or whether or not anyone died or didn’t or anything. It’s not about that at all. We’re covering a story of a woman who was there and heard very different things from what ended up becoming the official story after it changed many times in the media. That’s what we’re covering here.
advertisement - learn more Update: since writing this someone has informed us that there were a number of reports of multiple shooters at hotels. When we spoke to our source, she mentioned the Bellagio was one of the hotels where the first reports of shots and a death had occurred.
Our Source’s Story Before we get into this story. This is not made up, it’s not fake news, it’s not a conspiracy theory, it’s a story from someone who was there that night as she experienced it. This is important to note because her intentions in releasing this story are not anything other than wanting to explore the truth and how things could have changed so much based on the minute by minute play of what happened as she ran down the strip that night to safety.
We came across a post on Facebook from someone who was in Las Vegas the night of the shooting. We got in contact with her via Facebook and spoke to her about the post she had made in order to find out more specific details.
Her story was quite intriguing to us as she is essentially saying that what she saw and heard happening on that night, including what local news was initially saying, completely changed as the night went on. Very key and important details dramatically shifted in the mainstream media that left her questioning what was really going on. She wanted to know the truth of what she experienced that night and began to explore.
Her full post is written below, and based on that post we asked her some key questions to gain further clarity. (Reminder, as of Dec 4th 2017 we have been asked to hide the identity of our source)
“We are completely devastated by the events that occurred Sunday night,” Route 91 Harvest wrote in a statement Tuesday morning. “Our deepest sympathies go out to the inured and the deceased and their loved ones, senseless violence has claimed the souls of our fans and we have little in the way of answers.”
After hailing the first responders, security guards, and fans for “their selfless acts of bravery,” the festival offered words of encouragement.
“While we will try and move forward, we will never forget this day. We will NOT let hate win over LOVE. We will NOT be defeated by senseless violence. We WILL persevere and honor the souls that were lost. Because it matters,” the statement reads.

The 23-year-old country singer is of mixed race descent, and he survived a difficult childhood that included physical abuse and homelessness. He lived in poverty growing up, and has been candid about racism and the negative stereotyping that he has gone through due to his tattoos. He was raised in Georgia before settling in Tennessee, and while attending high school in Georgia he sang in the choir with Lauren Alaina. Brown grew up listening to country and was inspired to pursue a music career after winning a talent show in 11th grade by singing Chris Young's '"Gettin' You Home." Brown auditioned successfully for 'X Factor,' but left the show after producers tried to put him in a boy band, opting instead to post covers of country songs online. A cover of George Strait's "Check Yes or No" went viral, garnering 7 million views via Facebook, and Brown quickly grew an enormous social media presence that he parlayed into the release of his first single, "Used to Love You Sober," in 2015. He released an EP titled 'Closer' in 2015 and followed it with 'Chapter 1' in 2016, followed by the release of a self-titled full-length album in December of 2016. Brown has yet to score a mainstream country hit, but he's attracted attention with singles including "Ain't No Stopping Us Now," "Thunder in the Rain" and "What Ifs," a duet with his former classmate Lauren Alaina. He has toured opening for Florida Georgia Line and even headlined his own Ain't No Stoppin Us Now Tour, cementing his position as one of the hottest young artists in country music.
