factors. before we label with that it will be a matter of process. >> reporter: have you found any insight to what the motive was? >> no we have not. we have not located any items in the room or his house at this point. >> reporter: [ inaudible question ] >> it was a matter of normal practice. whenever we use a dynamic entry. >> reporter: sheriff anything else in the hotel room that made you think he had been there for a while? >> we have information he's been there since the 28th of september. so i have no idea whether he prevented the house keepers from entering the room or not. that's a matter of continued investigation. thank you very much. we'll provide you an update probably in the next two hours. thank you. >> the latest from the sheriff. las vegas police a lot of information coming from the

>> we are continuing live coverage across the country with the latest on the deadliest mass shooting in american history. a gunman firing at concert goers from the 32nd floor in the mandalay bay hotel. >> more than 50 people. more than 400 taken to the hospital. shooter identify. he's dead. 64-year-old stephen paddock found dead in his hotel room. he kill ld himself. >> more and more people sharing what they saw. dine diana haddad is a student at the university of las vegas. tell us where you were when the shooting took place. >> i was in the vip section.

>> what did you see? what did you hear? >> at first i heard what sounded like firecrackers. i'm not very experienced with guns. then i saw a big group in the center of the general admission ground just duck and cover while half of the other group just ran in the opposite direction away from the strip. >> just tell us about -- i know there was a lot offenses around. people were just doing whatever they could to escape. >> yes. we were closest to the outside fence. so we made our way down there. thankfully all of the officials there were trained to lead us in the right way. there were many leaders who rose from the group saying to push the fence down.

so we all did and we kept running away from the strip as fast as we could. >> i know you were trying to -- as much as you were fearful for your life you were trying to help as many people as possible too? >> yes. a lot of people were in a worse position than i was in the fact that they were of course emotional. they were crying hysterically. i remained more calm. so i just tried to comfort them as much as i could. as i was running i saw an older woman, probably as old as my grandma. i tried to help her as well. i stayed with her until my dad came to pick me up. >> bless your heart. how were you able to stay calm diana? >> i think it's just the shock. i still am sitting here unable to process what happened.

i cannot believe a horrific event happened in the city i grew up in. >> please take care of yourself. you hear about people who witness these sorts of things. you're no doubt in a level of shock right now. thank you so much for sharing your story and how you helped. diana take care please. >> 400 injured. medical health professionals will have to deal with post-traumatic stress for so many. >> we want to go to kenneth mo ten. he's on the scene right now at the shooter's house. >> we just reached the scene a few minutes ago. this is the neighborhood of the alleged shooter stephen paddock. i want to get out of the way of the camera. there's a police car with mesquite police. they're securing the scene and keeping us away from his house. it's up the street. they're securing the street and

the house for las vegas p.d. so they can execute a search warrant. if you look further up the street, you can see there's a command post that local police have set up in this area. again, they're not allows us to go past this point. we have know for about two years stephen paddock lived here in this bedrock community for reti retires. we don't see that much activity as far as the neighbors. people are starting to come out. they're starting to hear the news what happened in las vegas about 70 miles away from here. they're finding out it was the neighbor in this case. we're trying to find out from police when they plan to execute that search warrant. they're looking for any clues that will lead to a motive and figure out what lead paddock to

las vegas to execute this heinous crime. this is the latest on this scene. >> thank you. we're joined by ray kelly former chief of the new york city police, david brown and our chief legal analyst dan abrams. we have saw the police on the scene, ray kelly, basically lock down all of las vegas. now they seem convinced it was one shooter. >> that's what you have to do. you've don't know if there's another shooter or series of shooters that sort of thing. the smartest and safest thing to do is lock down the area. it also gives emergency vehicles more access to the immediate scene. >> dan, needless to say there are countless legal issues. many want to know how he got his hands on these weapons. >> that's right. one of the first things they'll look at is his computer. they judy want to know what was he looking for, what was he

searching for, who was he talking to. that can be a trove of possible evidence. it's not just about what was his motive. that's almost secondary. what i mean by that is the most important thing is figuring out was he working with anyone, who was helping him et cetera. that's the crime investigation. the sort of the motive the why did he do it, the how could he do it. that's important. it's really important. immediately what they want to deal with is figuring out is there anyone else we need to get and where might that person be. >> so it doesn't happen again so quickly. >> exactly. >> they seem to have ruled out his roommate who's out of the country. he had very few clues out there to lead you to believe he would do something like this. >> yes. that's why i think dan and ray are correct. we're trying to figure out his associations with friends and family, extended family,

extended friends. you want to follow his trail, where he visited to make sure there's no victims that he's killed along the way that we just don't know about. of those associations has he mentioned this wanting to kill in a mass way this many people. there's so much more to be done from an investigative standpoint and we need to be continued to be engaged in what law enforcement is learning. >> ray, in addition to what dan is saying what are investigators doing snow? >> they're going to execute the warrant. they want to see what's inside his home. they'll be questioning a lot of companions people who know him, people in the neighborhood. i would bet the behavior will start to come out. he's john q citizen but he did

this and that. the killer at virginia tech actually wore a sword for several days on campus. people just kind of accept that. we want people now to be much more alert to this kind of activity. >> we're going to start looking at -- now we know he was at the hotel since september 28th they'll want to know what was he doing. las vegas is the home of surveillance cameras. they're everywhere. we'll get a good sense if he left that hotel room where he was, where he went. >> they reported so far -- i don't understand. they used his companion's id to get into the hotel. >> when things are breaking, informs kind of trickles out. then we learn it wasn't precisely what we had initially thought. my guess is we're going to learn he didn't check in using her id, but maybe used her

identification at one point at the hotel in some way shape or form, maybe to get gambling money. i don't know. they're really careful in vegas about identification. it's not the place you can give a fake id and they say whatever. i think we'll learn more that makes that make sense. >> to be there sense thursday in a big hotel -- >> 10 guns. >> -- with all this maid service you would think somebody would have to have seen something. >> i think the big challenge is getting the witness testimony to link to together to get a story, to get a narrative about his first few days in las vegas. then to walk that back as many days as you can particularly if he visited a practice gun range in the days preceding so you can kind of hear what people that

were there to practice shooting saw, noticed about him. then you can piece together the current events and the days and hours before this happened to pull together a real story of exactly what was his state of mind, what happened, what did we miss, what did people see but didn't report so you can learn from this. >> a lot more left to learn. i want to go back to the white house. cecilia vega we're expecting to hear from the president soon. >> yes, george. aides are trying to finalize the details. we're told he'll be addressing the nation about the shooting at some point this morning. we know he's been briefed this morning. he's following the events in las vegas closely. the white house is offering its support to the local and state officials. we have saw that tweet earlier from president trump saying his warmest condolences and sympathies to the victims and families of the terrible las vegas shooting. god bless you. a number of reactions pouring in

from the first lady. former president obama saying he and michelle are praying for the victims. this will be the second time that president trump will have to address the nation after a large scale shooting. he did it in june after the shooting after the congressional baseball practice. >> very different. unlike in past events the president has not been too quick with that twitter. he had the condolences no other tweets from the president. no ascribing of motive. no labelling of the event. >> that's right. it took a while for him to tweet his response. it was 7:00 a.m. eastern time we heard a statement from the white house and the few finish after that with the president's tweet. he said in the past he wait toss hear the details and learn the facts. perhaps that was this case here. we will hear from president trump later. >> do we expect he'll still be

going to puerto rico tomorrow? >> good question. i have asked the white house that. we don't have an answer. as you say he's supposed to go tomorrow. that trip right now is still in the works. i would imagine that's a conversation being had behind closed doors at this hour as these events are unfolding. the white house has to decide whether this is a trip he will take in light of what's taken place. >> we're going to bring back pierre thomas. >> robin we know the attorney general has been on the phone with officials in las vegas. as the police told george a little while ago, this man hasn't showed up in any significant way in terms of terrorism or crime. it's a bit of a mystery as to why this man did this.

now back to coverage of the las vegas shooting. >> back here live on "gma." that is the moment jason aldean on the stage during a country music festival in las vegas. it's turned into the deadliest mass shooting in american history. that was the moment a 64-year-old man opened fire in las vegas. more than 50 people killed, more than 400 injured. >> 20,000 attended the concert. lisa fine was there and attended all three days of the concert. lisa, thank you for joining us. i can only imagine you still must be in shock. >> yeah. this is the scariest thing that's ever happened in my

entire life. to know all those people were getting killed right in front of us. we were in the vip section. as soon as i started hearing the bullets i knew it was gunfire. i told everybody to get down. get down. get down. people kept telling me it's not real. i said it is real get down. i knew the bullets were flying everywhere and if we got up we could die. i saw people getting shot right in front of me. it was horrifying. i saw somebody trying to save somebody's life. i saw some man run from the bleacher toss go out there and risk his life to save somebody. we have didn't know what to do. finally it seemed like it went on for about 20 minutes. then i just recording because i thought if i'm going to die i wanted my kids and my family to know what happened and when we finally -- the bullets started to slow down and we climbed

underneath the bleachers on our stomachs. we have stayed there forever. we saw a truck that had bodies piled in it. it was the scareyest thing i've ever heard in my entire life. >> i can only imagine. you've said it seemed like 20 minutes. it was only about 4 1/2. i think every second is an eternity. >> it felt like forever. when i saw people down on the ground, i wasn't sure who was hit and who was laying down to stay away from the bullets. >> how did you -- >> i haven't slept all night. i can't even imagine all those people are dead. >> it might take sometime before you're able to sleep again. i can believe that. how did you finally get out? you say you crawled under the

bleachers. >> we climbed down underneath and stayed under the metal as long as we could. we didn't know -- the bullets could have went through that. we figured he was slooting hoot targets and everybody was running. >> how did you know when it was over? >> well, the bullets just stopped flying. there would be a delay and you could tell it was a semi automatic weapon and they stopped. then they would continue. finally they stopped for a longer paid of time. that's when we thought we need to make a break for it. >> were you able to call your family and friends. >> i called my friends and family and my kids ashley and brandon. i called my mom and sister and told everybody we were okay and we lived. i just can't stop shaking.

i keep thinking of all those people shot and wounded. my heart just breaks. i can't imagine their families what they're going through. >> it is so so horrifying the number of people killed, the number of people injured. from what you were seeing could you tell where the shots were coming from and whether there was any kind of targeting or just mass spraying of the weapons. >> it felt to me like it was coming from the hotel. it just sounded like it was further away. it was raining down. you could hear bullets hitting. people were just crying. >> at first you say you knew right away what it was. for several seconds there jason aldean kept playing. a lot of people thought it might have been part of performance or fireworks or fake. >> a lot of people thought it was fireworks. i kept screaming to get down it

was bullets. kept saying stay down. stay down. >> did you ever imagine you would be in a situation like this? >> what's that? >> did you ever imagine you would be in a situation like this? >> never. never. now aye days you think you could go anywhere and it would happen. now it's happened to me and my friends. i'm afraid to fly and i'm going to california. >> we're glad you're okay. all of us are thinking of all the victims right now. thank you, lisa. >> i'm glad she's back at the apt and will be back with her family and loved ones. as you can major n an out flowing of support. of course country mu si stars are showing their support. >> it was supposed to be a

celebration of country music. we're hearing all that support from country music stars and so many more. the response has been overwhelming. jason al deern who was performing when the shots rang out posting on instagram his thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved. it hurts his heart that this would happen to everyone that was coming out to enjoy a fun night. first lady melania trump saying my heart and prayers goes out to victims families and loved. ivanka trump also tweeting our cl collective hearts are breaking. neil patrick harris saying i can't wrap my head around the aye trosty in vegas. josh gad pleading to an end to the violence adding he is sick to his stomach as so many are this morning. kate hudson saying her thoughts and prayers with the las vegas

community. the country music community reeling. kelsea tweeting just sad. brad pazly saying no words. ma tina mcbride saying she is pleading for everybody's safety. just seeing the horrific violence that took place -- >> when will it end? you wake up -- >> what's it going to take? >> every month we hear of another one. we want to bring in our security consultant steve gomez right now. steve, you've dealt with situations like this. so far we know he had an arsenal in that room. ten weapons. >> yes. what he did was he identified a

gap in security and he exploited it to the highest degree. having all those weapons, having to target where people are con gre gaiting. he exploited this worse than anyone could. it shows the vulnerability. >> there's no way to protect every soft target. you can't have a s.w.a.t. team at every event in the country. >> no. it could be at a casino or hotel. it could be at a business building and people have access to the window say in new york city or downtown l.a. it's going to require maybe different way of handling security at buildings to insure that nobody is bringing in ten rifles. >> steve, it was interesting when we heard the sheriff say they didn't know whether or not it was terrorism.

they don't believe any link to international terrorism. he said you have to meet certain criteria to be domestic terrorism. >> yes. that's something the fbi and local law enforcement will look at to see whether he had some leaning towards the myly sha groups. that's something that will be part of the investigation. >> so far from what we're seeing in his background and more information will come in every minute every hour, not a lot of clues there as to why he did this. >> that's where they have to get into his mind set. the biggest challenge is he's 64 years old. some people at that age don't use computers and smart phones. his social media profile might be nonexistent. there may be a gap in the collection of evidence we would normally see with regards to building a profile of his state

of find. >> they said that's what they want to go through right away. the one thing we have seen the picture from his former roommate's facebook account, but nothing from him. >> right. they're going to look at her social media, her e-mails. looking at everyone she talked about with regards to paddock, any family members, friends. he lived in a number of places. the investigation is going to take them to all those different states and places he worked. >> they did reach the companion who was out of the country. we're going to go back to matt. >> robin, i want to break it down for you. that one shooter using up to 10 rifles, 200 rounds, 400 people wounded, 50 people killed. there were 22,000 people at the

concert. one of the reasons there was so much chaos is the canyon effect of the shots ricochetting in the urban environment made it difficult to know where the gunfire was coming from. that's why there was false alarms up and down the strip. then you had a problem that first responders couldn't get to the people that needed help because they believed it was still an active shooter situation. that's why you have these images of people being moved out of that area on these makeshift stretchers created from barricades. they were putting them on the flat beds of pick-up trucks anything to get them out of that area out of that kill zone. what we're seeing in las vegas is a city traumatized. it's almost hard to fathom how many people have traumatized by this shooting robin. >> we have to keep that in mind. >> just the beginning.

we have some new images right now. it shows the window of the 32nd floor of the mandalay bay hotel where the shooter was found dead, not before firing 200 shots into the crowd of 20,000 people. injuring 400, killing more than 50. that had a panoramic view of the concert site. apparently he had been there since september 28th. dan abrams you were telling us for him to go that long he must have stayed inside that room. >> either stayed inside the room or we're going to have an enormous amount of survey lns footage of him. las vegas being one of the most surveilled cities in the country. >> we're live all across the country.

>> we're we're back live on "gma." 50 people killed. 400 taken to the hospital. joining us is dr. book mayer and dr. jen ashton who's in puerto

rico this morning. >> doctor talking about 400 people going to the hospital in the las vegas area. you can prepare all you want. that is a graetd task for the hospitals to undertake. >> absolutely robin. that's a very key .1 not being discussed in our health care preparedne preparedness. it sounds like the university medical center has practiced. we area grateful for that. to take on 400 wounded is an enormous task. you have to have leadership that will command. you have to have physicians, nurses ready on call 24/7. >> we can tell from talking to the eye witnesses who happened to survive this morning that
