But what did they do to stop it after 12 mins? Right or wrong they ordered their officer to stand down when he got there after the security guard was shot, if hotel security told the guard to stand down do they wait and let him continue to shoot for another 45 mins until swat is there?

It's disconnected on the floor...right by the tan piece of wood.

Or maybe the security guard noticed it and was the one who disconnected it as you can see in the picture. He was then in the dark.



You can see the wire coming out of the overturned plates.

No one knows why he stopped after 11 mins. I'm sure they would have entered the room much much sooner had the shooting continued

The Under-sheriff looks and acts like I would at a top level IRS meeting...and I can barely spell I-R-S.

I didn't catch that part in the press conference. Where is that being reported?

Is it possible he shot himself after the security guard got near his door.

Nothing, he killed himself.

Yes....no one gun guard would have a chance to get in that room.

Outside of bumpfire stocks, none of the weapons in either location had modifications. That's what I heard from this press conf.

I listened to the scanner. Cops went onto 32 at 11:25, and he had stopped shooting before they got there. No cops radioed about being on 32 before that. Safe to say the security guard stopped it if he got there after the shooting started, which he either did, or Paddock started after shooting the guard. Paddock was ready to roll for another 10 minutes easily, but stopped because of something, and shot himself in the head

That is specifically what I was wondering. The economic impact for this cowardly act is going to be interesting.

I understood the ATF agent saying none of the weapons were modified at the three locations. Outside of the bump fire stock of course

I still want to see an inventory of all the guns. No conspiracy, but I do find it odd we have only seen AR platforms. I'm wondering if he didn't have legitimately automatic rifles as well as the bump-stock outfitted stuff.

No way they hold back if he's continuing to fire into the crowd. I simply cannot believe they'd stand by doing nothing.
