On Sunday, October 1st, shortly after 10 p.m., a gunman shot from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, spraying bullets into a crowd of about 22,000 people at the Route 91 Harvest Country Music festival, officials said.
Photos showed two broken windows in a corner of the hotel that has a broad view of the concert grounds below.
Las Vegas Police Department confirmed at least 58 people were killed and more than 500 others were injured in a mass shooting at the Route 91 Harvest music festival. The shooter, named by police as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, is dead. It has been ruled as the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history.
For many of us in the rave community, Las Vegas is our second home as we travel to Sin City every year for the massive Pool Parties, Nightclubs, and EDC to see the hottest DJs spin the best music. Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Calvin Harris, Above & Beyond, Disclosure & much more, who all currently have residencies at some of the top nightclubs in Vegas, react to the deadly terrorist attack. Many have shared their fears, thoughts, and condolences with the friends and families of those affected.
My people in Las Vegas, the community, you’re in our hearts.
We are in complete and utter shock at the events in our old home in Las Vegas, Mandalay Bay. Our thoughts go out to every single person…
