It is obvious that he had been planning this for a long time. They found about 18 guns in the hotel room, and thousands of rounds of ammunition and thousands more in mesquite, nevada. There was also Electronic Devices that they are looking into. Another s. W. A. T. Team is going into another home in northern nevada that he owned.

It was in one of these towers where two windows were busted out. Stephen paddock checked in that thats back into that hotel days before, that is before he opened fire on a crowd. It was dark when witnesses described seeing flashes coming from these broken windows. The shooter had a clear advantage and here is why. The gunman was position high above the crowd at least 1000 feet to the concert venue. But with this unobstructed and unprotected view, you can see how the concertgoers were like sitting ducks. When this played out, jason aldean was playing on the stage, and it was the last song of the night, and everyone thought it was firecrackers, and then jason aldean ran out the stage. The problem is there was only three exits. Some say it was like a death maze because people was pushing down fences or just jumping over them trying to escape. Meanwhile, the gunman was reloading and firing again and again, and it took just over one hour to reach his room. Many of these casinos also were on lock down all the way into the morning, and it was not until late this morning that guests could go back to the room and get their belongings. Thank you brooks.

At first you know, this was reported as a coordinated attack. Absolutely. They are going to send officers to all of the places that they think an active shooter are at. People are running two areas, and people are injured, and they assume the shots are coming from the hotel. So, once he figured out where it was coming from, the first thing you have to to do is life safety.

What do you do with Law Enforcement to narrow in on where he is . You have to remember they have officers working there, so i am sure that reports are coming in , and so i think they narrowed it down that they had an active shooter in mandalay bay. Then, they have to figure out where he is at. You had to figure out what floor he is on, and then, you have to get a plan together to go in there and stop him from shooting. And you have to do this as fast as possible. Minutes mean lives. We have seen that over and over. We have trained for that, and one of the key elements is to get in there and get in there fast, and get that threat neutralize. We should also say that the las vegas Police Department trained at the same time i was there two years ago. Do you think that that training help them respond last night . They are a well Trained Police company, and are one of the best in the country. Our unique thing that we have an urban shield is that we put police, fire, and medical together in one Training Exercise so that you learn how to work together. Should that ever happen in the bay area, we have also had that training. Itd help them . I hope it did. We were talking in the break just how calm the voices were of the swat team members that was going in, and we kind of got a chill as they remain so calm in a horrible situation.
