From the shooting it is said that at least 58 people are dead and around 515 people are injured.

Police say that a gunman who was at the 32nd floor of a Las Vegas Casino who started shooting towards the people down below who were at the concert.

The gunman is said to have been a 64 year old  white man who had no criminal history.

After the shots were fired, police stormed into the gunman's hotel room to arrest him, only to find out that he had killed himself.

This attack is similar to other attacks towards the public through the past couple of years.

From all the attacks there seems to be a similar pattern running through all of them such as the suspect killing themselves, killing/injuring people and terrifying people.

According to police, this is the deadliest mass shooting in modern America.

This terror attack has led to many changes which are taking place / yet to take place such as enforcing gun control laws in America and people donating blood to the victims who were injured in the attack.
