Warning: Violent video content, but not explicitly graphic.

Check out this video from during the shooting. It looks like video of a security guard firing into the crowd...accomplice?

News article with video inside

ETA: FWIW, not claiming its proof or anything, just a glimpse of the chaos that looks suspicious. Could have just been the cop seen later and the flashing light/gun sounds wasn't from him...dunno

I truly think that’s someone squatting down at the time of gun shots. NO ONE is reacting to that and that would be loud and obvious af

My issue with the video:

If there was a second shooter right there, that place would've been a stampede. Notice everyone is still standing there?

It does look like he's carrying a gun though.

Someone with the right video equipment can probably verify it or not.

Looks like the cop who crossed the camera a few seconds after. He drew his weapon and couldn't tell where the fire was coming from

What I see: LVPD wearing a bright green vest heading toward the crowd. He is holding a flashlight and when shots begin to ring out he squats down while raising his flashlight hand giving it that flash of light. It appears he is in the video toward the end as well, although it could be a different LEO.

Notice,you see zero shell casings as the light is flashing.

There are a lot of stupid people in the world. And a lot who just can’t believe that people can do evil things without the government or ISIS or the New World Order or aliens making them or at least helping them. There is absolutely no credible evidence that has surfaced so far to indicate anyone other than the shooter was shooting into that crowd. Now as to whether he was part of a greater plot involving other people- that will be discovered, I’m sure.

Not shooting, if you believe he was you should turn in your law license.

OMG, You F-ing drama queen! You don’t think Metro has seen this and ruled it out as the same spotlight that passed by moments before.

Lol, I posted something that I thought was interesting for discussion. Not sure that bears on my law license.

Have a great weekend!

Whoever suggested this was video of a second shooter deserves to be shot. Or at least stub their toe really hard walking to the bathroom.

fricking stupid.

I feel like I deescalated it too, though.

And fwiw, I meant the author of the article, not the OP of the thread.
