Lemon in las vegas. Cnn tonight starts right now. Anderson, thank you very much. Our breaking news, of course, this worst massacre in modern american history. Were going to take you now to the press conference happening. Lets listen in. I want to emphasize we believe paddock is solely responsible for this heinous act. We are aware of the rumors outside of the media and also on social media that there was more than one assailant. We have no information or evidence to support that theory or that rumor. We believe it was only one shooter and that was Stephen Paddock. We are doing a thorough investigation and only want to provide what is accurate to you. We will only give information that we have vetted and know to be true. I will not be speaking and answering questions on issues that we do not have the facts yet. The latest estimate on the number of injured still stands at 527, which the sheriff put out earlier this afternoon. We have 59 that are deceased. Our homicide detectives are working around the clock to process the scene as soon as they possible can. We understand that there are personal belongings that people need to retrieve from all of the locations. Once we come close to clearing that scene, we will provide more information for how people can get their belongings. And we are coordinating that with the local hotels and with the venue so that we can can get their belongings back. The Family Resource center will play a role in that task. We want people to know that the center is up and running at the Las Vegas Convention center and we are asking families and friends who live in las vegas to physically go to that center, which is located at the convention center. The hotline number has changed due to some technical difficulties. That new number is 18005369488. Again, thats 18005369488. The number that we gave out previously is no longer in use. However, if you are a local person from las vegas and are looking for a loved one, please go down to the Family Resource center in person. That is the best way to get assistance. I also want to comment on some steps that mgm resorts has taken. They are coordinating rooms at no cost at the bell ago for families that are coming into town. They are also coordinating travel through southwest airlines. They are coordinating crisis counselors for people that worked as vendors, kpees and guests, and the American Red Cross has been given space over at circus circus to establish a headquarters for the local community until they get some National Assets in. We have had an overwhelming turn out of people standing in line to donate blood at the united bloos services and at umc,but they cannot take any more people right now. We are asking that you not go down there until at least tomorrow afternoon if not the next day. They have enough supply to last them for the foreseeable future. People are also donating food in large amounts. While the gesture is pleeshtd, metro does not have the ability to coordinate dliry or distribution, and were asking that if you are going to donate food, do so with either bottled water or sealed food to the red cross at 1771 east fla ming goe. There have been a remarkable amount of support for our community. We have been asked by concerned individuals from near and far asking how they can help. At this time the go fund me page set up for the victims set up is the best mechanism to show your support to the victims. We do not anticipate having any further updates tonight. When we do have further updates tomorrow, we will send out a press release notifying you that we will be giving more information. These past 20 hours have been trying and we know we have a long way to go. Im proud of the courageous and rez yaens displayed by all our First Responders on this event. I also want to appeal to you and the public and the media. We know of no known threats in our las vegas area. If we did know of anything that could harm the safety and security of our citizens, we would tell you that and our department would act upon that. Please allow our department the ability to do what they do best, investigate crime and keep you safe. With that i will turn it over to commissioner sis lack, who has a few words. I just have a few words id like to say. Again, ive had several of these today and its been a long, long day for a lot of us. But i just left mr. Jim i have a special thank you to two groups that we had our First Responders, obviously our medical personnel responded. But for the fact of the great work done by the men and women of metro and the security at mandalay bay, we would have lost hundreds if not thousands of more lives. They were able to triangulate and locate that room and get people in there and saved countless lives. And for that we will be eternalel grateful for the work that you did. And in conjunction with mgm. We did set up with the sheriff a go fund me campaign and i appreciate todd saying something. As when i walked in here we have received in excess of 30,000 donations exceeding 2. 2 million. When we started it we set the goal at 5 hundred,000. We got to a 100,000 and one individual called and said i will get you to your goal. And he donated 400,000. That individual was anonymous until now. He is said that we could release his name. It was steven clue beck donated 400,000 to support this community. We ask you all to support our community. And again, like to ask you next time you see one of our First Responders, whether it be metro, fire, or what have you, tell them thank you because we owe them an eternal debt of gratitude for what they did. And ive got some other figures. Congressm congressman tightous. Well, thank you very much. This horrendous act of evil happened right in the heart of district one, which i am honored to represent. The whole day has revolved around that act. Its been police briefings and talking with the fbi, visiting hospitals, all the things that kind of are associated with an act of war. But we also heard stories of individual heroism, people helping others through the gate, over the fence, shielding their bodies, standing in line for blood. Those are the kind of stories that we need to focus on. Its so appropriate that weve ended the day with an Ecumenical Church service on the strip where we gathered to grieve for the fallen, to thank our wonderful First Responders who have done so much in coordination with each other and just to hold hands with family and friends, to cry and to recommit ourselves to do all that we can so that this never happens again. It has been a long day as you can imagine for everybody here, and like my colleagues and everyone here in Southern Nevada have to thank the First Responders, our Law Enforcement, the medical community here, you are emts, everybody who ran into the face of danger to save lives. Many lives that families now are concerned about those who have been injured, families now who are dealing with loss of loved ones, i too had a niece there last night at the event. She was one of the lucky ones who made it home, but there are many who are still injured and who did not. And now it is time for all of our community to come together to bring comfort and relief to these families. I know for all of us this week is going to be about those families, those who have been injured and how we can do everything in this community to continue to support them as well as supporting the Ongoing Investigation that needs to take place independent, let them do their job. There will be plenty of time to secondguess. There will be plenty of time to play politics, but right now is the time to come together as a community and support and comfort one another. Lieutenant governor of the state of nevada and on behalf of the state of nevada i want to thank everyone who has already been thanked repeatedly today and were going to continue to thank them over and over again. Everyone who ran towards the bulgts when everybody else was running away from the bullets. Those who met the victims at the hospitals. I spent most of my day at the hospitals and as a matter of fact i just came from sunrise. Sunrise took care of 214 of the victims and performed over 90 emergency surgeries. Just extraordinary efforts on behalf of our medical community. They handled this tragedy with competence and character. And were very, very proud of them, as nevadans. I told you last time that umc and Spring Valley performed admirably. I spent some time as well. If you arrived at any of those facilities as well. Its just the best of the nevada spirit. The best of our community. Las vegas has been my home, born and raised here. Raised six children here. And what weve seen today at the close of this day is the best and in the highest traditions of las vegas answer and nevadans and americans. Youve heard story after story when you meet these victims about their Guardian Angels at that tragic site who carried them out of harms way or took them to the hospital in vehicles. Its justin inspiring in a day that has been depressing and dark, its inspiring to see what americans do for each other. And so to all of those who have helped today, i say good bless you and well get through this together with our faith in god and the american and the nevadan spirit that we have. Thank you. Ill take a small number of questions and then well end it for tonight. Sheriff, you mentioned 23 guns. Are they all rifles and how do we explain the difference well, like the sheriff explained earlier today and as i explained moments ago, our information as the Investigation Continues can change. We put out the information that we have at that moment in time and sometimes those numbers will change. But there are 23 firearms at mandalay bay and 19 out of his house. The investigation is it a Homicide Investigation . Are detectives involved . Is this case putting a strain on your manpower . So i can tell you that its a Homicide Investigation, and homicide is investigating that specific aspect of the crime. We have every resource available on our agency working, and i can assure you that the sheriff has made a point that we have resources, both in the neighborhoods and around the community, as well as the Las Vegas Strip and downtown, that has not diminished. It actually has increased. Hold on. One at a time because pardon me . The vinl i have not personally gone through the entire list of victims, so i cant answer that question for you right now. Hold on. The majority of people when gunfire happens if last night jason aldean had managed to say to the crowd take cover before he ran off stage, do you think he could have saved lives . I dont know. I wasnt there. I dont know what jason aldean was thinking when he was on the stage. I do know that a common thing is is when people hear gunfire they run for cover, right. Thats a natural human instinct. I dont know what he said before he left the stage, but the investigation will bring that out. How long did paddock shoot for . Was it continuous or did he stop . I mean, how long do you think the shooting actually lasted . We are still putting that timeline together. Sheriff, can you give us a timeline of his movements . When did he shoot the Security Guard and did he continue shooting out of the window after he shot the Security Guard . I know he shot the one Security Guard up on the 32nd floor, but i dont know if he continued to shoot after that or n not. Hold on. Can you tell us his movements 24, 48, 72 hours prior to the shooting. Thats what our detectives and our partners are working on right now. It will be some time before we can give you that in a Chronological Order and with an amount of confidence that its accurate. Have you any progress at all on his motivation . There were reports that he was sending money to philippines. Like i said, were hunting down and tracing down every single clue that we can get in his background. Until we confirm all of those things that are floating around out in the media and in social media, i cant comment on that. Two questions. Any timetable for when youre going to get those hard drives opened up in mesquite . Secondly, did he specifically request that hotel room at mandalay bay . No, we dont have a fespecif timeline. I dont know that yet. Did he have a computer in the room . We did see several pieces of media about a computer. Have you examined it . Does it give you anything about motive . Its ongoing. One other question. After the raid in reno, can you tell us anything about what was taken there . Were there any weapons, explosives, computers or clues to give us something about motive . Nothing that i can speak of and that scene is still being resolved as we speak. Let me let me emphasize something to you that might help. I know that you are all very eager to find out exactly what his motive was or what was going through his head or what he was doing up to two weeks ago. I promise you the sheriff will provide that information when we have confirmed it. It doesnt make sense for us to put out information that is not accurate and isnt timely and reliable. So please have some patience with our agency and our partners to get you that information. I promise you we will provide it to you when the time comes. Guns into the hotel . What was your question, sir . What time exactly did the get breached . I dont have do you guys have that . No. I imagine someone must have that. We have a time log of everything that we to, and thats what the detectives will be putting together as part of their investigation is from start to finish and including that entire timeline. So well probably have more information on that probably tomorrow. So im going to take two more questions and then were going to be done for the night. The Family Resource center, is that just for families who are looking for loved ones or is that where they go if they need help . They can go there for help and resources, okay. If theyre looking for a loved one or a friend and theyre in town they need to go there. Its at the convention center. They also have that 800 number that they can call ahead of time. Specifically about that search warrant, the additional one that you guys executed today. You were originally saying northern nevada. Can you now confirm that that was in reno . Yes. No. But i can tell you that thats part of our investigation of determining just that. Obviously every hotel has video. Im sure that were going back and reviewing every ounce of that, so. Any more guns in the investigation . Is that possible that that number will go up even farther . I would say that in the areas that weve been so far, i would say no, but until were done with the investigation, im not going to marry to that number. Last one. At the hotel . Not other than what the sheriff put out today at 4 00 or 3 00. Weve got all the guns out of the suite, the two rooms from which yes. So youre confident that you have all the guns. Im confident in the number that i gave you of what we have recover recovered. All right. Thats it. Thank you. All right. Officials are here in las vegas holding a press conference, a briefing finishing up right there. A number of things came out of it, again, theyre looking for they believe its just one shooter now. Theyre saying there is no threat. They dont believe theres any threat to las vegas right now. One shooter, of course the shooter is deceased. 59 people dead. 527 injured. People their personal belongings are still on that site and theyre trying to work as fast as they can to get them their personal belongings. But here is the interesting thing that came out of that. The number of guns that they found at his home inside the mandalay bay and that room on the 32nd, its now gone up to 42. 23 at mandalay bay, 19 in his home. And also announcing that someone gave 400,000, a steven clue beck, who is a chairman and ceo of diamond resorts. I want to turn now to some Law Enforcement experts to talk about what we just heard in that press conference. Thank you both gentlemen for joining me. John, what did you think of the press conference . What did you get out of that press conference . Obviously Law Enforcement is working very hard. Theres a lot of information. We have a huge crime scene here, a lot of evidence to collect. A lot of interviews to be done. They need to talk to everybody who ever worked or knew this guy. Theyre letting us know now its going to take time. Were not going to have answers tomorrow or next week. They seem pretty resolute. Reporters are asking questions and digging and they we have to investigate this. Give us time to investigate it. 42 guns to most people that sounds like a lot. Is that unusual. Its not unusual. Ive executed a lot of search warrants at homes and come across that many weapons or even more. People that collect guns have that many type of weapons. Its just not that unusual. And i know that sounds kind of shocking, but its not that unusual for somebody to own 40, 50 or 60 guns if theyre a gun collector. Cnn spoke to the brother earlier and he talked about his gun ownership. Well plai that and then well talk about it. Here it is. Not an avid gun guy at all. The fact that he had those kind of weapons is just where the hell did he get automatic weapons . Hes not he has no military background or anything like that. Thats his brother. Has no military background. He has no clue. This one is it is its surprising. Theres no clue. Theres nothing in his history that would show, that would lead to this. Whats going on here . What do you think . The profile for this individual is unique. When we usually see this type of incident occurring, i mean, usually theres something in his background that will point to it. Now, we havent found it yet. Were still not there still could be something there. It just seems odd to me that a 64yearold individual would do this. This was some heavy duty planning on his part to get this done and then not leave a note behind or a message with his girlfriend who i know is coming back to the states. It just seems odd that we havent come across anything yet, nothing on social media. John, do you think theyll find something. Theyre absolutely going to find something. And while he didnt plooe a written note, thats one of the things the fooib is going to do in forensics. Theyre going to loo
