a focus accuracy and shooting into the fact that there were so many people there that could be easily targeted even though these are 400 yards and four football fields away where he shot people there. the other question is why were so many people in such a precarious position for so long? if this were roughly the viewpoint from the hotel and this is, this is an aerial shot of the area and it should be more over here, but this gives you an idea of it. this is the concert area right in here. this over here is the stage itself. so you are looking at the back of the stage so jason aldean would be somewhere over here. the bulk of people had pressed forward into this area. you have a condensed number of people in this area. complicating furth e once the shots rang out, there were seven different places where they could possibly left. there were seven possible exits from this area.
detained three people. we don t know if mary lowe is marilou is one. that is detained. brian: maybe somebody knows him or has seen him around and the fact that police need our help to find this woman. i think is also very significant. ainsley: and to find these two cars, the chrysler pacifica tour minivan and suv. justin was there with his friends and girlfriend. tell us what you saw at the concert. what you saw, what you heard, and what it was like. hi, guys. it was really surreal. we were toward the back of the stage. in the concert area but towards the back of the stage. and just started hearing popping noises.
he was outside of the mandalay bay in lobby area and saw the gunfire break out. you say you saw windows shattering. per i was sitting in lobby area in salk and one to have-sidewalk and a few random gunshots and another window busted out and rapid gunfire gunshots that went on for two minutes. what were people doing, what was the reaction of the crowd? you could hear screaming from over concert area and the muis stopped, and people were trying to figure out what was going on and not a lot of reaction at mandalay bay was the shooting was going on elsewhere.
