Police froze in fear while 54 minutes went by.


Bull

I listened to the scanner tapes of the police radio traffic from the start.

Police officer acted heroically right from the start and many were killed oe r wounded.

Within minutes of the start of the shooting an officer on the scene located the shooter, took the initiative and called for a strike team to form up on him at the Mandaly to take out the shooter.

Another two officers and hotel security guard located the shooter and went directly to the zoom and engaged the shooter.

The first thing the police did was shut down the elevators and put police guards on the stairways to prevent the shooter/shooters from escaping or rallying at different locations.

They had to climb 32 flights of stairs to get the shooters room.

Try that some time when each next flight of stairs is a potential booby trap or ambush.

This was the L.V. Police's finest moment.

I see delay — needless delay and indecision. Why stop the elevator when you need to obviously get to the 32 floor? Trained swat with shields and battering ram should have sliced and diced this dude in 15 minutes!!72 minutes — who are they kidding.? I want to know how many were shot from minute 12 to minute 72. This was not a good response by any measure.
