Per local LE at presser on now: think the perp killed himself.
I have no idea on how they know this for sure. Hope they’re right.
Thank you, they are excellent.

Supposedly guns number 10 now, not 8.
Don’t blame me.
Just catching the tail end of a live press conference on NBC right now on the East Coast.
“dynamic entry” to shooter’s room
he was at M.Bay since Sep 28
— end of presser —
Per LE at presser on now: Paddock at the hotel since Sept 28. Suppose perp never intended to pay, so bill wouldn’t be an issue.
‘I was in room 135 and I heard over the police scanner that the shooting came from room 137,’ said the man, who asked not to be named.
‘It was non-stop, I would say well over 100 rounds. We hit the floor and took cover. I called the front desk and she was remarkably calm and said she was aware of the situation and told us to stay in our room.
‘After around 10-15 minutes it just kind of stopped. You could smell the gun powder. Right before we got out I heard an explosion, maybe a flashbang, but windows were blown out.
‘The cops came on to the floor and they were clearing rooms room by room and six or seven cops came into our room and we were evacuated.’
@FBILasVegas is asking anyone with videos or photos from the 10/1/17 Las Vegas shooting to please call 1-800-CALLFBI (255-5324)
I brought up the Muslim angle as per those Israeli papers and was told this could not be true. Whatever...time will tell if we ever get the truth.
Sky News reports Marilou is Australian, but possibly originally from Indonesia.
The San Bernadino shooter was supposedly converted to a terrorist by his wife so there is that
found something. He’s supposed to be the manager of the retirement community. (article also says total people transported to hospitals now 406)
“Paddock was a licensed pilot, who owned two planes. He also had a hunting license from Alaska.
“It is believed he lived in a retirement community in Mesquite. “
LVPD now says this Mary Lou woman was not in the U.S.
Anyone heard how long a gap between the cessation of shooting from the hotel room and cops gaining entry?
Yes, they did report earlier that he lived in a retirement facility.
Killed by the method used to breech room?
Suicide?
Killed by an accomplice who bizarrely managed to avoid police?
But he was dead
Another question, not meant to be disparaging: What was Mandalay Bay’s security doing during all this? I assume the hotel has some.
And not go to a police officer?
Yes; lots of casualties...hope that teacher who posted to Twitter that she was ‘praying that all the dead and injured were Trumptards’ is happy...they need to track her down and fire her ASAP.
