This is some really fucking scary shit. Hope everyone is ok, the sound of that weapon is not making me confident.

 

[Mimosa97]

That sounded like more than one active shooter. Probably multiple shooters with auto rifles. Concert venue + shooters randomly killing people in the crowd is textbook isis modus operandi. Reminds of the bataclan terror attack my city. Jesus christ this shit will never stop.

 

[Erv]

If there were multiple shooters wouldn't doubt if columbine was a big inspiration for them

 

[SteveO409]

so much shots fired in those videos...wow....

 

[Mario]

Arrived in Vegas this afternoon with my girlfriend, and just got out of a show at the Bellagio. Most people seem oblivious to this. My brother in NZ called me to ask if I was okay.

 

[Outlaw Torn]

I just got out of a concert at the Hard Rock Hotel and had no idea that this was happening. Could see people running away as far as UNLV.

Listening to police scanner now.

I'm reading multiple shooters possibly taking aim from three different hotels. Holy shit this is bad.

Can you all hold off on the it must be this or it must be that talk. You'll know soon enough so what the hell good are you doing?

 

[Nekofrog]

if you're there, get out now. don't take any chances. just stay as safe as you can

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

Hoping the fatality/injury number is minimal, but the rapdiness of those shots is not a good sign to say the least.

Christ, stay safe mate.

Video taken during the shooting, there's a guy kneeling down to a person who was shot: https://www.instagram.com/p/BZvBP0-HEJA/?taken-by=randy_kindred_girl_

Oh my god, horrifying.

Stay safe everyone in Vegas.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Tweet with video of someone at the concert when Gunfire broke out. No one is shot in the video you just hear a ton of shots. from 6 seconds to 16 seconds. Just non stop firing

holy shit. horrifying.

The strip is really long so luckily you're at about th halfway point. Stay safe and let's hope it doesn't get worse.

 

[Laieon]

I don't know anything about guns, but those noises didn't sound good. Hopefully there's minimal causalities and they catch whoever is doing this pretty quickly.

 

[gutterboy44]

Holy fucking christ. That is multiple volleys of full auto fire. Full on warzone nightmare. Those videos are horrifying.

Stay safe, Vegas-GAF.

My God, that gun fire is terrifying

 

[rudger]

There are gaffers in vegas now? What should be suggested? My gut says go hide in your rooms. My brain says I have no fucking clue what you do here and may suggest something that would get you killed. Stay safe vegas gaf (and all of vegas).

 

[wandering]

Jesus, it sounds like a battlefield. Terrifying.

 

[IAmAnAgnostic]

Seems very organized... a terrorist attack no matter who is behind it

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Definitely sounding like an organized, full fledged terrorist attack.

 

[Erv]

Holy hell. And it seems like they have no idea where the fire is coming from.

 

[CampbellzSoup]

STAY SAFE omg you motherfuckers how could someone do this my heart is with you all right now

 

[scitek]

shots fired at multiple hotels. mass casulty event. multiple confirmed dead and injured. possible explosive devices in cars. multiple shooters still at large.

From the scanner.

 

[RedBaron17]

Update: LAS Airport, flights are landing but none are taking off.

 

[DragoonKain]

For those that have direct knowledge about purchasing or owning guns, how difficult is it to acquire a fully automatic weapon, if that's indeed what these people in this attack are using?

Can't remember the last attack in the US off the top of my head where I remember fully automatic weapons being used unless I'm forgetting one. Jeez this is awful.

 

[whitehawk]

From the scanner.

Source? I mean are you listening to it yourself or did you get that from Twitter.

 

[SuperBanana]

Wasn't there word Las Vegas was a target for a coming terrorist attack? I hope it's not that. Jesus.

 

[opticalmace]

jesus FUCK.

 

[LT Snoshado]

Holy shit I feel sick reading this.

I hope this ends soon. What the fuck ;-;

 

[victreeb3l]

This is fucking awful. Holy shit.

This was the concert by the way, Jason Aldean was the headliner tonight so it's likely he was performing at the time the shooting started.

 

[Terbinator]

Horrible stuff.

I think thats just a quote from the scanner page

 

[NotLuck]

Stay safe everyone. Sounds horrible

it's redic easy to convert a semi-auto to full auto

 

[Shanks D Zoro]

This is awful. Just got to hope that those responsible are stopped ASAP.

Just gotta hope there are not too many fatalities.

Stay safe Vegas GAF

 

[acheron_xl]

This is the last fucking thing this country needed right now.

 

[Caramello]

This is so fucked, I really hope these fucks are caught quickly holy shit.

 

[Bornstellar]

What the else would you call this?

 

[Einchy]

On the police radio they just said medics are reporting getting shot at.

Also, a suspect is "down". Not sure if that means dead, shot or detained.

Video taken during the shooting, there's a guy kneeling down to a person who was shot: https://www.instagram.com/p/BZvBP0-HEJA/?taken-by=randy_kindred_girl_

Wow, this is going to be really bad.

 

[SuperBanana]

What the else would you call this?

I mean a planned ISIS attack, not a mass shooting by a mentally unstable person.

 

[disChapo]

Horrible. I started panicking until i realized my brother doesn't work today. Ugh.

 

[NoRéN]

Wasn't there word Las Vegas was a target for a coming terrorist attack? I hope it's not that. Jesus.

Word or not, it's a tourist destination. Perfect target and as someone mentioned many casinos connect so you can go through a few casinos without stepping out. Multiple exits, lots of parking lots.

This sucks.

Shooter in Mandalay Bay on 32nd floor is down. He was shooting down on people
