Paddock targeted concertgoers at a Las Vegas country music festival late on Sunday night.
The 64-year-old targeted concertgoers at the Route 91 Harvest country music festival at around 10 p.m. local time (PDT) on Sunday night.
Video and pictures from the scene captured the chaos and human toll taken as extended bursts of automatic rifle fire rang out.
Following the attack, Las Vegas police found and killed Paddock. They discovered multiple rifles in his hotel room, according to Joseph Lombardo, sheriff of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
A woman who attended the concert told Fox News that before the shooting a couple who looked Hispanic and both stood around 5 feet tall had been escorted away.
“She had been messing with a lady in front of her and telling her she was going to die, that we were all going to die," the unidentified woman told Fox.
"They escorted her out to make her stop messing around with all the other people, but none of us knew it was going to be serious.”
Police were hunting for and found 62-year-old Marilou Danley, who they've identified as Paddock's roommate. Police described Danley as Asian, 4 foot 11 inches tall, and weighing 111 pounds.
Police are not investigating the attack as an act of terrorism at this time.
