Active shooter incident.
Reports of multiple shooters.
Definitely multiple victims and multiple ambulances going to different hospitals.

Shooting is actually at Route 91 country music festival taking place near or on Mandalay Bay property.

Massive police response specialized units enroute including Mass Casualty response vehicle.

Performers at Harvest Festival heard multiple shots fired at about 10:00pm.
Those on stage witnessed major trampling and stampede incidents.

LVMETRO twittered everyone that LV Blvd was closed in the area and that ALL plane traffic at the airport was in abeyance briefly.

Early reports were confusing as to exact location and number of shooters and also as to whether high numbers of victims were gunshot wounds or trampling victims.

Reports are "many dead".
One known shooter; others appear to be rumors.
Over twenty victims now in hospitals but unknown whether GSW or stampede injuries.

Report of lockdown at festival unless leaving in an ambulance.

Conflicting reports of activities at the casino itself.

Good to know you're out in the street. You're first I've seen affected at Caesars. They're reportedly clearing LVB to Sunset.

Wow, many of the (unconfirmed) reports I am reading are talking about what seems like coordinated attacks at several properties.

The videos on twitter from Mandalay Bay are terrible, not watching anything else myself.

Its still really early to know whats going on, but I hope everyone here & friends/family are safe.

I was driving southbound on the 15 around 1030pm tonight (about 1.5 hours ago). I saw cops flying down the freeway, one after the other after the other. And they weren't just regular cop cars, but looked like a bunch of different types (like undercover lookin' cars, sedans, big trucks, etc.). Seemed like they were getting off on Russel or Tropicana. A bunch others on i15 North. Then the freeway heading north got stopped completely down to about the 215, completely stopped.

I figured some sh** was going down, but holy damn, this is way worse than I expected.

The Strip probably has as much security as anywhere in the world. Of course, it doesn't mean they are well coordinated for such an incident.

Unconfirmed reports related shootings at Bellagio.



The floor at Bellagio was evacuated. I was able to get to my room about 30 minutes ago. I haven't seen anything in the news here about the Bellagio, but there was panic and hundreds of people running.

I can see that Flamingo is shut down at I-15 and only ambulances are getting in.

Actually, I don't think that's necessarily true. Sure, there are a lot of security guards, but for the most part, especially in this type of situation, they're practically worthless. I don't know if they carry guns, I don't think they do. Most are probably lucky if they have pepper spray and a taser. I don't go to the strip too often, but there definitely are cops on the strip, but it doesn't seem like there are too many or enough to make it a "very secure" type of area.

I was playing my guilty pleasure DaVinci Diamonds at Ariavwhen at 11.30 pm a large group of people in panic ran into the closed Aria cafe. So I cashed out and ran as well. The dealers locked their chip trays and hid under the tables (if I saw correctly).
Later members of that group told me they had heard a loud noise and someone yelled "shooter". Turns out, there was nothing. Aria was locked down for a few minutes.

This information may not be correct.

It seems like the guy was shooting from the 32 floor of the Mandalay Bay.

Metro is claiming there was one shooter who is NOW DEAD. He is a Las Vegas local. They are looking for his companion an Asian girl named Marilou Danely 4' 11' 111 pounds. They are looking for a Hyundai 114-b40 Chrysler 19D-401

2 off-duty cops attending the concert were shot.

2 confirmed dead, 12 in critical condition, another 12 wounded. They suspect more than 20 are dead and 100 injured.

From listing to the videos and the long rapid fire this does not seem like a normal automatic assault rifle set up.

The Strip is closed from Sahara to Sunset.

Once I was in the area (not sure if it's still there) where the Tiki birds are. There was some sort of confrontation in a large group of people (40-50), and the cops poured in pretty quickly. But no one was actively shooting just fighting.

Exactly what happened at CP.

The paid parking gates continued to function as normal. Some people were struggling to get out, as they hadn't stopped to pay their fees.

By that time, I figured I was safe, and the gate opened for me automatically. But f u c k those greedy pieces of s h i t.

I was down on the strip but in an unaffected area. I cannot get to sleep. There are ambulances and sirens still. I live near a hospital ER. Also cell phone is not able to make calls out of state currently.

Watched a few vids and it definitely sounded like an AK47. Probably using 50 round drum mags. Those people were fish in a barrel. So sad. Hard to miss under those circumstances even for an untrained aggressor.

Hard to hit?
I think its hard to hit a specific target depending on lighting and the angle but in a crowded concert its hard not to hit someone.

Response time is pretty good and LV cops all have area frequencies in their cars, not just their own departments frequency.

There is also a supervisory frequency.

The problem is vague reports. Did cops head to the casino or to the property's events area, particularly the concert? Did anyone say active shooter is in Mandalay Bay tower and shooting into the music audience?

Casino guards are rarely armed unless on cashier escort duty or escorting the regularly scheduled changing of drop boxes which must be coordinated within two minutes of scheduled time.

LONG ago there was a gang related shooting and guards who got involved obviously could not shoot straight so casino decided to disarm them. One casino has armed guards that are required to stay current in their shooting range certifications. However, what is a pistol toting guard going to do against an assault rifle in a room that is undoubtedly barricaded.

Sex offender? Maybe he knew something was going to happen and decided to go out in a blaze of 'glory'?

I'm not saying Stephen Paddock has anything to do with this, he's just connected to the chick they are looking for.

Interesting, Some guy being interviewed by the news (the guy sounded like he was in his 20's) said," I do want to make it very clear there was gunshots coming from inside the event as well, there was gunfire, we thought it was firecrackers going off and we didn't even know what to do. We just kinda stood there for a second and Jason Aldean stopped playing and that's when they just unloaded all their bullets. I just laid on the ground and there were bullets flying everywhere past my head, I started smelling gunpowder and when I started smelling gunpowder I knew the shooter was close. I was in a flight or fight situation and got separated by all my family."

The female newscaster glossed over the part about the gunshots in the event and asked him if he found all his family, and she should have, but don't you follow up and ask more about there being gunshots in the event?

The newscasters keep pumping people to describe what they were thinking of during the shooting and their emotional states now.

Yeah, they're saying more than 50 dead, more than 200 injured. So the deadliest.

IF the guy was alone, and others weren't shooting as Axel said he heard they were, I don't see how the casino was at fault. The venue was across the street. They don't open people's luggage when they check in. So what could the casino do differently?

IMO, nothing the casino can do or should do, other than offer a statement of condolences.

It clearly isn't the casino's fault (unless something else comes to light). I think just about everyone sees that and wouldn't even wonder if the casino was at fault. As of now, it appears it's just a crazy guy who came up with a bizarre (to say the least) plan. I've searched through some articles and nothing is showing as far as his motivation for it.


Apparently his "roommate" is Marilou Danley, which is kind of odd, but whatever. Her husband (or ex-husband?) is Geary Danley. Looking at his facebook page, you see the pages he "likes" which are almost all left-wing pages. They include "Anti-Trump Army", "Thank you Obama", "Not my president", "Fight trump", a bunch of proud democrat pages, and all sorts of other leftist pages. Looking at his page, there appears to be hundreds of these pages and nothing that isn't a leftist page. As a reminder, this guy (Geary) is the husband of the chick (Marilou) who was the accomplice to the shooter (Stephen). Geary is NOT the shooter and AFAIK not connected to any of this.

However, just looking at that, it appears he's pretty far left on the political spectrum. Don't know about Marilou, but I'll take a wild stab in the dark and say she's likely far left as well, being his wife (or ex-wife?).

Granted, the far left stuff could just be a coincidence or completely unrelated. But again, I'll take a wild stab in the dark and say it may likely be a strong part of the motivation, if I had to guess. Combine this with it being a country concert (where I assume the attendees are likely more republican/conservative/right wing).....well to me, it looks like the motivation is political.


Again, no reports out yet that I could find saying what the shooter's motivation was, this is just my 2 cents.

They include "Anti-Trump Army", "Thank you Obama", "Not my president", "Fight trump", a bunch of proud democrat pages, and all sorts of other leftist pages. Looking at his page, there appears to be hundreds of these pages and nothing that isn't a leftist page. As a reminder, this guy (Geary) is the husband of the chick (Marilou) who was the accomplice to the shooter (Stephen). Geary is NOT the shooter and AFAIK not connected to any of this.

However, just looking at that, it appears he's pretty far left on the political spectrum. Don't know about Marilou, but I'll take a wild stab in the dark and say she's likely far left as well, being his wife (or ex-wife?).

Granted, the far left stuff could just be a coincidence or completely unrelated. But again, I'll take a wild stab in the dark and say it may likely be a strong part of the motivation, if I had to guess. Combine this with it being a country concert (where I assume the attendees are likely more republican/conservative/right wing).....well to me, it looks like the motivation is political.


Again, no reports out yet that I could find saying what the shooter's motivation was, this is just my 2 cents.



So you have determined this guys probable political affiliation by looking at his roomates estranged husbands facebook?

Why stop there. Why not check the estranged husbands mother? Who probably never met this guy?

I actually have a friend who has been married for 15 years and has not seen her husband in ten years (they are on facebook together) so if her current boyfriend did something similar you would check out the husbands facebook. What a fantastic detective you wpuld make

The brother of the shooter has been interviewed
No indication of some political bent.
The Family is actually shocked. "Mars just fell to Earth" is how shocked they are
They said "he's a regular guy, he gambles and he goes to shows"

Very weird. It almost sounds like he snapped yet this was well planned
When somebody doesn't believe me, I could care less. Some get totally bent out of shape when not believed. Weird. I believe very little on all forums
