Mass Shooting Outside Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay; 50+ Dead, 406 Sent to Hospital

A gunman reportedly opened fire on a country music concert outside the Mandalay Bay casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday evening.

Fifty-plus people are confirmed dead and there are 200-plus reported injured. One suspect named as Stephen Paddock is confirmed dead by Joseph Lombardo, the sheriff of Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

Las Vegas Police have closed I-15 from Tropicana to Russell Road, and are asking people on the Strip to avoid the area. Reports indicate at least one gunman opened fire on crowds gathered for the Route 91 Harvest country music fest.

Update — 9:55 a.m. PDT: Breitbart’s Michelle Moons says Trump’s schedule was just updated to include a 2:45 PM moment of silence led by the President and the First Lady. And there will now be an on-camera press briefing at 2 PM with Press Secretary Sarah Sanders.

Update — 9:45 a.m. PDT: IDs of victims beginning to trickle out.

Update — 9:35 a.m. PDT: Associated Press reports that a woman “companion” of Paddock’s is a person of interest in the investigation of the attack but she is currently out of the country.

Authorities say a woman who was a companion of the Las Vegas shooter is considered a person of interest and is out of the country.

Sheriff Joe Lombardo didn’t release further details Monday about the woman but said authorities would try to speak with her when she got back to the United States.

Update — 9:07 a.m. PDT: Sen. Cardin (D-MD) wants bipartisan action on automatic weapons:

Diane McKay lived next door to Paddock and Danley until July, when McKay moved to a different community, but said she only ran into Danley occasionally when both women happened to be pulling weeds from the front yard. Danley wasn’t forthcoming about her life, and Paddock was aggressively unfriendly, McKay recalls. She only saw him in the mornings, when he went to the club house to work out.

Occasionally, he would open the garage door, revealing a large refrigerator safe. Other than that, the couple kept their blinds closed.

“He was weird. Kept to himself,” said McKay, 79, who described Paddock as small but in pretty good shape. “It was like living next to nothing…You can at least be grumpy, something. He was just nothing, quiet. He never went out in back and enjoyed the backyard, nature. They had a little backyard, 17 feet to the fence and hill. But the blinds were always closed.”

McKay said the couple was gone for six months last year, which she thought was for a gambling trip.

Paddock’s family said there was nothing in his past that would suggest violence. Family members said that Paddock spent much of his retirement in recent years staying in hotels in Las Vegas and gambling. They said he listened to country music and went to concerts at Vegas hotels, similar to the one Sunday night where he opened fire on a crowd of concertgoers.

Public records show the gunman Paddock was a licensed pilot who owned two planes. And he had a hunting license from Alaska.

The AP reports that “multiple victims have been transported to hospitals,” and University Medical Center spokeswoman Danita Cohen said they have received “‘several’ people with gunshot wounds.” Los Angeles-based KABC reports that “at least 20 victims” have been treated and that one witness said, “There was blood everywhere.”

Just before midnight local time, Los Angeles Police confirmed that one suspect is down:
