Trace gallagher. We are alive again tonight in las vegas, as this town begins to heal, another busy day for investigators, in a grief stricken town, as they try to shed some light on why an evening of fun and music suddenly became a scene of coldblooded murder. And to look at this video taken just seconds before the firing started, because it gives you me perspective about the witnesses who say it sounded at first like fireworks. Watch this. [screaming] trace from dancing to the rat a tat tat of bullets. Authorities are hoping that this woman can help them delve into the mind of the mass killer. She, of course, was his girlfriend. Tonight, well learn what she told the fbi about the man who took 58 lives and left hundreds of other people injured. Plus a deeper look into the killers hotel room. Startling pictures from inside his room reveal his incredible firepower, and the meticulous planning behind the bloodied rampage. Will the killers massive arsenal convince lawmakers to strengthen gun laws or is this a case of all the laws of the world would not have stopped this shooter . Also, we will meet again with some of the people who witnessed the horrific carnage. One First Responder who led a heroic operation to save lives out in a virtual american battlefield. It felt like a huge baseball, just the force of it going through my stomach. Then i looked down, there is blood anywhere, i didnt even know i was shocked. I laid there and compose myself for a minute, i said, okay. I cant stay here, im going to die. Or am going to bleed out. I was being trampled and it was so hard to move, you know. Everyone was stepping on everybody. Trace she was trampled. She said she was going to bleed out, and yet, the words kind, caring, and quiet. Those were spoken by Stephen Paddocks girlfriend, using them to describe the man who Authorities Say triggered the bloodied rampage from his 32nd Floor Hotel Room window overlooking the vegas trip. Tonight, we have brandnew information about the moments that led to the massacre and the chilling arsenal paddock how does disposal. We have an update on the hundreds of victims who survived sundays deadly hail of bullets. With us now from University Medical center live in las vegas, fox news correspondent will carr. Tell us about the scene tonight at the hospital. It is it looking more calm, a little less strenuous for the Staff Members there . Well, trace, you are three days into this, you have had the victims starting to leave. There are still more than 170 victims at hospitals across las vegas, it comes as investigators have spent the last three days poring through the life of the gunmen. Speak of what we know a Stephen Paddock is a man who spent decades acquiring weapons and ammo, and to living a secret life, much of which will never be fully understood. Authorities believe that Stephen Paddock wanted to survive after the attack. He had two cameras outside of his hotel room, one on the inside, none of which were recording, but they were set up in a way that he could observe Law Enforcement as they started to respond to the room. We also learned that he had explosive substances and to more than 1600 rounds of ammunition in his car. Does that mean he was planning another attack . That is still unclear. The one person who could potentially provide some answers here is his girlfriend, marilou danley, who returned to the United States last night, authorities her attorney said that she is cooperating with authorities. He wrote a letter on her behalf in which he states that two weeks ago, paddock told her that he bought her a cheap ticket to the philippines. While there, he wired me money. Which he said was for me to buy a house for me and my family. I was grateful but honestly, i was worried. At first, the unexpected trip home, the money, was a way of breaking up with me. Continuing to talk to danley, as everyone continues to search for the motive behind the most deadly mass shooting in modern United States history, trace. Trace it is indeed a parade will carr life of the University Medical center. Will, thank you. A day after the trip to hurricane ravaged puerto rico, President Trump traveled to las vegas to meet with victims and First Responders. Fox news correspondent Claudia Cowans live in las vegas with more on the president s summer visit. Claudia . Well, trace, for the president , todays visit was a personal visit. He has a long relationship with las vegas including a big hotel here that bears his name. Today he struck a very somber tone during his four our visit here, involving visiting two different venues. The president and first lady offered prayers and condolences to the victims of sunday nights shooting massacre and thinks First Responders and doctors who rushed to save lives. Their first stop was the University Medical center. The president spent an hour and a half meeting privately with some of the victims and their families, as well as doctors and nurses, calling them some of the most amazing people. I have to tell you, it makes you very proud to be an american when you see the job that they have done. And people that would not be around today are up there and they will be leaving the hospital in a week or two weeks or five weeks. In some cases, even in a few days. Its amazing. The president then went to Las Vegas Police headquarters and gave his personal thanks to the dispatchers and officers who responded to the scene and in many cases put their own safety aside to help others. In a somber tone, the president spoke of the families who will go to bed and a world that is suddenly empty. He told the people of las vegas that the nation stands with them to help bear the pain of the worst gun massacre in modern u. S. History. We know that your sorrow feels endless. We stand together to help you clear your pain. Youre not alone. We will never leave your side. I see so in all week, the president brushed off questions about whether the shooting should rekindle the gun debate, and while he did not visit the site of the attack, he certainly thought because his motorcade drove right past the mandalay bay hotel. Late today, the president , always active on social media, sent out this tweet, saying, we love you, las vegas. Before he left, the president invited some of the wounded to come and visit him at the white house when they recover. Trace . Trace Claudia Cowan live in las vegas. Claudia, thank you. As the president said, he is trying to brush up the guncontrol battle battle but the battle does exist. Voters passed a law in 2016 to require background checks in nevada. Background checks for a private gun sales and transfers, but a state attorney generals of the law was unenforceable. It never went into effect. Now governor Brian Sandovals office has asked the attorney general to reconsider that opinion. We are joint and not by the Lieutenant Governor of new back nevada, march hudgins and play Lieutenant Governor, thank you for joining us. We will talk about the gun debate in one second. I want to talk about this brandnew report, talking about how the shooter was actually trying to go after if we can get a shot of it, trying to go after the aviation tanks which are a couple of hundred yards from us here at mccarran airport. There were some bullet holes in these tanks, it gets scarier and scarier. It just shows how evil and do. If this. Not only shooting at 22,000 people down here, watching the concert, having an enjoyable time, he wants to blow up fuel tanks and rock as much havoc as possible. He continues to be more and more disturbing. Trace the Police Coming out saying that he booked a room at the ogden hotel in downtown las vegas over the side of the life is beautiful concert, a week before this concert. It makes you wonder, was this the intended venue . Was there supposed to be something that was more flamboyant . What really strikes a chord with me. My daughter is an 18yearold young woman at home, my youngest is six. Her friends, others we know so well, attended that concert, these kind of concerts here. Its frightening. If you consider what could have happened and the Investigation Continues and well find out soon. Trace after the gun control debate. We just talked earlier about this, and there have been a lot of people on both sides saying Different Things about gun control. I want to play for you if i can the beit Martha Maccallum talked to congressman Steve Scalise, on his recovery from the gun battle, i want to play this for you and we will read you a quote from a band member who was playing at the concert here on sunday night. They dont have it. But what he saying is well play Steve Scalise in a minute. What he is saying is, he was actually reinforced, it reinforced his belief in that we dont need more gun laws. Your stance is . I think if you can show me a law that would prevent evil men from slaughtering innocent people, i would support it in a second. I think we all would. I think it is a little early, trace, to talk about policy and what comes out of the situation. We will have plenty of debates and opportunities. I can tell you this, there were some of those victims who i talked to in the hospital rooms, i have been visiting with them for three days, and at least if you have told me that one of the thoughts was they wanted to get their vehicles and get their own guns to protect themselves and loved ones. Trace what about using these bum stocks . 12 of them inside the room . It turns a semiautomatic into close to an automatic weapon. What about Newt Gingrichs income is Something Like this needs to be looked at . I think we will look at those type of things. I think they are reasonable precautions, certainly take income a reasonable approach is to keep us safe. Again, if you can show me a law, trace, that will prevent a madman for massacring people, i will support it all day long. If you can pass these kind of loss, i think we would have already. Trace youve got to be awfully proud of your state and city. The people have risen. Trace, youve spent time here, you know vegas, you know the heart and soul of vegas. Born and raised here, raised six children here. What we saw, the response we sought to this evil, no doubt, october 1st will be a dark day in las vegas history, but also one of the finest days in las vegas history, as well. We saw what was keeping with the best and highest traditions of las vegas and nevadans and americans. The response that we saw was truly incredible. Trace i want to circle back and play this Steve Scalise bite for you and get the opinion. Play this. I think we see too much of that were people say, okay, now you have to have gun control. Well, first of all look at some of those bills. Those bills wouldnt have done anything to stop this. The gunman actually cleared background checks. To promote some kind of gun control i think is the wrong way to approach this. Frankly, what i experienced was when there was a shooter, we had, luckily we had Capitol Police there with their own guns. Every single day in america, regular citizens that just have a passionate belief in the Second Amendment, that have their own guns, use guns every single day to protect themselves against criminals. I want to say come on the flip side, we have the guitarist for the josh abbott band, they. He said, i have been a proponent of the Second Amendment my entire life until last night. I cannot express how wrong i was. We need gun control right now. My biggest regret is that i didnt realize it until my brothers on the road and myself were threatened by it. Someone who is involved in the middle of it, someone who was involved, clearly, he was drunk and lost his life. Two different perspectives. One adamant about no gun laws and one thing we need to change it. It will be healthy, something that is necessary. But not now. It is still very, very early. Lets focus on the victims, lets help them get their lives back together. I am so proud of my city, i am so proud of my state, so proud of my country, for the response i have provided to us, trace. Americans have responded in a way that americans always respond. We are grateful is a city and a community. Trace Lieutenant Governor, you should be proud. Really amazing to watch. Has been. Thank you, trace. Trace he said he will never forget the carnage he saw sunday night in las vegas. He even used the shirt off his back as a tourniquet to help one wounded man. He joins me right now. Aaron, we talk about this, im not sure if you heard our conversation with the Lieutenant Governor, but we talk about how the city has just done so many things, and the people of nevada had come together. But at the very moment this was all going on, give us an idea of what you were going through and what was your first instinct when you heard these bullets start coming . My first instinct was to get to cover. I had my girlfriend, and one of my friends overseas, his girlfriend with me, his wife with me. We were just trying to get to cover. We made it to the bar in the center of the venue after multiple gunshots were going off. We dropped to the floor. We would get back up, and we just kept moving. Gunshots would stop, wed move. The gun stops would fire, we would drop to the floor, and we would work out a way to the other side of the venue. Yeah, it was unbelievable. Trace we played a piece of video at the top of the show, aaron, im not sure if you saw it. It was a unique perspective because we havent seen that. Weve heard a lot of gunshots but we havent seen people dancing and having fun and then suddenly stopped to hear the gunshots. What were you doing right before you heard it . Tell us about that part. Right before that, i was dancing, i was with my girlfriend and a couple of her friends, and we were having a good time, listening to one of my favorite country artists. And as soon as i heard the shots, it was is insane. Trace we should just let you know, aaron, this is the video we are playing, you can hear the shots again, we have been talking to guests all week long, when they hear the shots again, it is very frightening, jolting. We dont need to do all to come of that is not our intent. We are showing the video to show you what we are talking about. It gives us an idea of what it felt like for you when you are taken aback by just hearing that all over again. Does it bring back horrifying memories . Yeah, it brought back multiple pictures of people i saw dropping to the floor and i saw a lot of things that i would never thought i would ever see in my life. It was terrifying. Trace what was the brightest moment, aaron . When you figured out that you were going to live, what was the brightest moment when you look back . The people helping each other, the heroes, people who knew they were injured but were just trying to survive . The moment of joy was seeing everybody helping each other, definitely. From everything that has been going on in the world, seeing this is definitely it did bring joy to me when i saw people helping each other out. Everywhere i went, they were people making tourniquets to stop bleeding, to caring people out of the venue. It was definitely amazing to see that. Trace i can imagine. Aaron 37, the horrifying with the exemplary mixed. Great if you to join us. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Trace lets pause for a moment from the cover of the vegas magic massacre to talk about another tragic story. Three members of the american armys elite green burial unit have been killed in an attack in niger. Two other members of the special forces squad were wounded, among eight or ten u. S. Soldiers that were fired, came under fire while conducting a grote wow patrol. The pentagon has operated a drone base there since 2013. Nigeria is a landlocked nation of western africa, one of the poorest countries as you may know, about twice a side of texas. It is also teaming with terrorists. It is unclear tonight which terrorist group may have been behind the deadly attack on our soldiers. Well keep you updated on the breaking news as it comes in. In the meantime, investigators searching for a motive and focusing their attention on the shooters girlfriend. Marilou danley now back in the United States for questioning. Tonight, we are hearing from her sisters. Much more on that in the continuing coverage of the recovery in las vegas. Straight ahead. She was sent away. She was sent away so that she will be not there. Whos he . Hes the green money you can spend now. Whats up . Gonna pay some bills, maybe buy a new tennis racket. Hes got a killer backhand. When its time to get organized for retirement, its time to get voya. Well make it a mealand get to remember. Ng. Because tonight. We mangia dont just eat, mangia trace will come back to the live coverage. Investigators continue to search for a possible motive behind sunday shooting. Now, they are turning their focus to the shooters girlfriend. Marilou danley was out of the country at the time of the deadly rampage but here he arrived back in the states tuesday night to speak with investigators. Danley issued a statement through her lawyer saying that she had no inkling about what Stephen Paddock was planning. Her sisters say paddock bought her a cheap ticket to her native philippines, sending her away while he carried out sundays riddle attack. He sent her away so that he can plan what he is planning without interruption. In defense, i thank him for sparing my sisters life. But that does not compensate for 59 peoples lives. Trace for more now on danleys role in the investigation, lets turn to former assistant director of the fbi in new york, bill gavin. Bill, thank you for joining us for one, sir. If you go think about this, we didnt get much of information about what the fbi was focu
