Las Vegas Shooting

     
Over-looking the Vegas strip in Nevada on October 1 st , 2017 A reign of terror has been let loose
on innocent victims who were attending a county festival while Jason Aldean was preforming. It has
been pronounced the deadliest mass shooting in united states history, the total death & injured count as of October 2, 2017 is 59 people killed and 527 injured. The shooter being a 64-year- old retired man by the name of Stephen paddock, Police say he was local man living just an hour and a half drive away living in a small retired community still with no evidence of motive for the mass murder.
   
 Friends and family described him as your typical average guy and had no reason to
suspect that he would ever be capable of doing something this horrific or of this
nature. Further reports show that when police investigated both property’s
they discovered and additional 18 Firearms in Mr. Paddocks home with
thousands of rounds of Ammunition with it not including the 17 guns that were
found in the 32 nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel. As reports show Mr. Paddock has
had no criminal history but it was found that his father Benjamin H. Paddock was a notorious Bank
robber and was on the F.B.I most wanted list who was known to carry firearms with him.
As time goes on the president has made statements about the blood curling
situation as he tweeted his warmest condolences to the victims and
families who were affected by the shooting. Reports show that the
president will be in Nevada on Wednesday to further address the
and to be there to support those who lost loved ones.

   It has not been confirmed if the shooter committed suicide or if he has been
killed by S.W.A.T. but has been pronounced dead. He was located in the building
by smoke detectors from all of the gun fire. And his family has been under
investigation for any more clues as to what possibly was his motive to kill and
injure so many innocent people. As more reports show Stephen was a known
high stakes gambler and question has arisen of whether or not he was involved
with some sort of debt that he was unable to pay.
