More than 400 people were injured in the Las Vegas shooting


An estimated 406 people were transported to Las Vegas-area hospitals after a gunman opened fire on 22,000 concertgoers near the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino late Sunday, authorities said. At least 50 people were killed:
Las Vegas residents crowded blood donation centers overnight. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department told other people looking to donate blood to victims of the shooting to visit the Labor Health and Welfare Clinic.
Authorities said one suspect, a Las Vegas man identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, was found dead apparently of a self-inflicted gunshot wound on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel.
