20 dead, 100 wounded. Lone shooter, dead. (riiiiight...)

Saw a tweet from a concert goer who said an Hispanic couple were running though the crowd yelling everyone was going to die, said the lady made it to the stage and shouted it through the microphone but was rushed off stage by security. This was about 45 minutes prior to the shooting.

People monitoring police scanner feeds during the incident reported the police were reporting multiple suspects in custody, and other suspects still on the loose, shootings at three separate hotel casinos (all next to each other), an Audi with a bomb in it in a parking garage with four suspects in "gray camouflage fatigues" being looked for. Multiple eye witnesses reporting at least three shooters from different locations. All "officially redacted" to "one shooter, no bombs, one location".

I've heard one report saying the dead shooter was a white male, local to Vegas, with an Asian girldfriend who now has a BOLO alert on her. Heard another report that the shooter was a Phillipino male????

Total confusion as usual.

I guess the NFL brouhaha is off the news, as is the total government failure to provide relief supplies to Puerto Rico (government agencies ordered 30 some odd relief cargo containers held up until battery power failed, now that cargo is rotting and no relief available).

Reports coming out that shooter - Stephen Paddock - is a white male who recently converted to Islam.
