New FBI docs: Las Vegas mass shooter was angry at casinos

Las Vegas Shooter-FBI Documents
Posted

LAS VEGAS (AP) — FBI documents made public this week reveal the high-roller gambler who opened fire on concertgoers on the Las Vegas Strip had lost tens of thousands of dollars while gambling weeks earlier.

One gambler told the FBI that gunman Stephen Paddock was very upset about how the casinos had treated him and other high-rollers.

The new records don't offer an official motive for the mass shooting but paint a detailed picture of Paddock's final days before the Oct. 1, 2017, mass shooting that killed 60 people and injured hundreds more.
