An eye-witness account of the Mandalay Bay Massacre from a woman who says that she was told “you are all going to die” 45 minutes before the shooting began. A threat that she took seriously enough to leave the concert and return to her hotel room.

First hand accounts of mass shooting during the country music festival at the Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vegas. These descriptions are extremely graphic and scary. I am praying for everyone impacted.

At least 50 people were killed when a gunman opened fire on a Las Vegas outdoor concert.

ISIS Claims Las Vegas Shooter ‘A Soldier’ Who Converted to Islam ‘Months Ago’

ISIS has claimed responsibility for the mass shooting in Las Vegas, Nevada Sunday night saying that Stephen Craig Paddock was a Muslim and following their instructions.

“The Las Vegas attack was carried out by a soldier of the Islamic State and he carried it out in response to calls to target states of the coalition,” the group’s Amaq news agency said. “The Las Vegas attacker converted to Islam a few months ago.”

The attack was pre-planned. Paddock checked into the Mandalay Bay Hotel on September 28th and stayed there for three days setting up two shooting platforms and preparing 10 rifles for use in the massacre. The fact that one was fully-automatic would indicate either serious financial resources, an illegal arms source, or the expertise needed to convert a firearm from semi-auto to full-auto.

A fully automatic M-16 sells for as much as $20,000 and takes a special stamp from the ATF in order to purchase and possess. Other automatic weapons sell for even more. The type of rifle or rifles used in the attack has not been identified. There are three mosques in Mesquite, Nevada where the shooter resided making it possible for him to attend religious services, but there has been no independent confirmation of Paddock’s alleged conversion to Islam. The religion of his Asian female companion, Marilou Danley, has not been made public. FBI officials said Monday that they “have determined no connection to any international terrorist groups” in response to ISIS’ claims.

Jake Owen, who was in Las Vegas to perform during the festival and witnessed the shooting happen, first tweeted, “Gun shots!!! Vegas. Pray to god. Love you guys.”

He then returned to Twitter shortly after and added, “Praying for everyone here in Vegas. I witnessed the most unimaginable event tonight. We are okay. Others aren’t. Please pray.”
