after the massacre at columbine, we closed the gun show loophole. after the tragedy at aurora, we strengthened our background checks -- in a western state last year those background checks people from buying guns. that may sound like a lot, but 380,000 people applied for guns in colorado last year. that means just 2% of those folks who applied were blocked and 98% were able to buy a gun without a problem. who was that 2% that colorado is blocking but this congress fails to block? among them were murderers and rapists and kidnappers and domestic abusers. who one can come to this floor and tell me that cool is worse off because we kept guns out of the hands of those people. the average wait time was 12 minutes. that strikes me as a fair trade-off to keep guns out of the hands of murderers and kidnappers and rapists. but here in washington, despite now an annual tragedy, tragedy after tragedy congress has done nothing. we haven't even done simple things like close the gun show loophole. or stop people on the terrorist watch list from buying weapons. th

the first change was after columbine. the first responders are there, it's an offduty cop, offduty sheriff's detective, campus police officer. >> in the navy yard, there was a bike kopasz well. >> we had these units, we were going wait a minute. this takes a tactical skill set, you need a homogenous team. after columbine, we decided to integrate training. active shooter protocols, the state, local and federal officials, we all conduct those operations similarly. you know the terminology, the vernacular. if four or five folks assemble, they can make the assault on the room. >> the shooter apparently booked rooms at or scouted. help push the investigation forward. how does that help? it points to or opens up a range of potential motives, i guess? >> motives and potential co-conspirators, what they're doing, at other places that they're looking at might elicit evidence about others who were involved. was he with someone, was he talking to someone how did he get there? was he dropped off. you're going to have a series of touc

. >> this would have been a columbine-type incident.he real hero in my opinion is the person who made the initial call and the tip. >> reporter: the sherriff says a helpful tip led them to his personal diary spelling out their plans. they also say they found a homemade explosion nif her home. >> i just couldn't believe it. i knew both of those kids. they both rode my bus. >> reporter: on mccurley's social media pages are signs there may have been an issue. images celebrating the columbine high school killers. fear the nobodies. another picture of columbine killer dylan klebold with the message "outrun my gun." police believe that mental health issues may be responsible here. and they're not revealing tonight who called this in. david? >> steve osunsami with us tonight. steve, thank you. >>> next this evening, to a new development in the harvey weinstein case. today, he sued his former company for records, as he now prepares to defend himself. it comes as grin sawyer sits down with ashley judd. her first television interview. judd was th

immunity, a team that worked together, we've learned post-columbine is you can't do that. >> in columbine, they waited for s.w.a.t. and even then they wanted and some of the people like the teacher bled out after laying on the floor for four hours. >> and i have to give kudos to the las vegas police department and their sheriff's department. as a former fbi s.w.a.t. team leader, what happened with the initial assault, the first guys that got up there the only one 11 minutes, that probably took the attention of the shooter away from the two windows in his barricaded situation, and that slowed him down. it goes from a hasty assault which is what they were doing to a deliberate assault as soon as he stops shooting because the only reason you would make an dynamic entry is this, first thing, stop more killing. second thing, if it's a hostage situation. we didn't believe there were hostages inside. the shoops had stopped. now you take a step barks put together a plan, you bring in folks that have explosive breaching capability. those doors are steel doors with steel frames. those are difficult

i played college football at the university of colorado when columbine happened and we wore the columbine flower on our uniform for the entire year. that was 18 years ago. and here we are again. i mean, when does it stop? when can we find some common ground and common sense in this country? it's not about the second amendment. i'm not a gun owner, but i'm not against people owning guns. i'm against people owning military assault rifles that nobody needs to protect their family or to hunt with. >> i can ask you something, ryan? because the people who are saying that this shouldn't be discussed are saying that it shouldn't be discussed out of respect for people like you who have lost loved ones. what do you say to them? >> i say we need to discuss it. we need a round table and get washington involved, everybody involved. our loved ones would still be here if we would have done something about this a long time ago. columbine was not the first mass shoot, as we know. it was the first 1 that got a ton of press and coverage. but how many have there been since then and how many more does it take

columbine had already happened like five months before that. there were quite a few similarities between my case and that, like i was wearing a trench coat. >> and behind some murders, a person you thought you could trust. >> i just remember when i woke up, first thing i said was, today is the day. >> more americans are incarcerated today than ever before, and now when we go behind the walls of maximum security prisons, we see a greater cross section of inmates than ever. >> i mean, obviously they're the ones that the moment you meet them, you know they're dangerous and belong in prison, but we're also finding more and more inmates who have committed murder who look like the guy next door, just an average, normal guy, and it's really left us puzzled. i mean, what would lead a guy like this to kill someone? >> at 27 years old, adam drake looks more like a college dorm resident than a maximum security prison inmate. >> you seem awful happy and perky. >> i am always happy and perky. >> but when we met him at the limon correctional facility in colo

. >> in those situations, we learned after columbine, the total police shift and tactics after columbine. in nypd, we trained the time i was commission, is training to get into that location. hostages, unfortunately, cannot be really dealt with in that type of situation. >> what does it tell us about the weapons. how do you get your hands on them? some can construct a semiautomatic weapon and upgrade it, so to speak. what do you make of it? >> some of the fully automatic weapons are tightly regulated. there's a black market for this, this type of weapon. i want to go back to what the commissioner just said and matt's question about the s.w.a.t. team tactical, going in on somebody that's that heavily. speed, surprise and violence of action. with the explosive breach, throwing in the flashbang and disorienting. the law enforcement officers are trained. they train with the light and explosions because they want to appear when they do these live time that they've been through it before. if there's a hostage in that space, they're looking to discern who might have a weapon. but in this case,

>> just think about this, columbine happened in the late '90s. people said, never again, and now here we are. thanks, katie beck joining us from mesquite, nevada. >>> lester holt has been here for nbc news and covering this. lester, you got in here earlier than most, and you have watched what has happened. one of the things stephanie and i said coming in last night is this doesn't feel like las vegas normally does. very little quiets this town down, but this has done it. >> yeah, i was with someone local a little while ago, a half hour ago, that said i have never seen it this quiet. when you go down the strip, you get used to the signs advertising this act and this show. a lot of them, a lot of the lighted signs with a number people can call if they are missing someone. it has taken the breath out of this city for a time. somebody asked me, how long do you think that will happen? i always look back to new york, 9/11, that there's a recognition that at some point where you never forget and then continue to mourn that there is something comforting

after the columbine massacre in littleton, colorado, the littleton fire department created their own tactical ems unit for exactly that reason. because these incidents are becoming far too common in america. and the firefighters, the paramedics need to also have protective gear to deal and treat with people on the ground. >> tom, we'll share some of the numbers, you mentioned the columbine shooting, april 20th, 1999, where 13 people were killed, 24 wounded. the university of texas tower shooting, august 1, 1966, 14 people killed, 31 wounded. the mcdonald's shooting in california, july 18th, 1984, 21 killed, 19 wounded. the list goes on and on. we think last year the pulse nightclub shooting where 49 people were killed and more than 50 wounded. and now here we are in las vegas last night, at least 50 people now confirmed dead with 400 being treated in area hospitals. let's go back to steve patterson on the ground in las vegas all night. speaking to eyewitnesss who were there when the deadly shooting occurred. steve? >> reporter: stephanie, the sun has risen now, much of the las vegas

think back to columbine in 1999. 15 people died and that was unthinkable and then we have 600 people or 500 people injured. >> columbine was a game changer because at that time the scene had to be secured before medical went in but now that has changed. that is something that we do. we get medical in as quickly as possible because minutes save lives. when you hear that gunfire if he is allowed five or 10 minutes who knows.>> so the very first police officers arrived and what is the strategy? someone is shooting. is the strategy to get people out of harms way? is it to engage the shooter? what is the first thing? >> all of the above. initially you want people out of harms way but there is a lot. you have to have people that are trained. you have to have supervision that makes good decisions to get to the shooter. so what they did, they are actively going toward him and we don't know exactly what happened but you have to put pressure on the guy so he will stop shooting. >> i would imagine law enforcement look at what is happening in real life and then taylor the training. can you stay

columbine showed us that 13 was not enough. no.mall children, the lives lost at virginia tech, not enough. 49 lives and orlando, no. it's not enough. the fact that more americans have died from gun since 1968 then on battlefields in all our wars since the american revolution, is that not enough? now 59 people have been murdered in las vegas and hundreds more are left struggling with injuries both physical and mental. , and believe me, i have trouble picking up the worst part, daily mass shootings had become just ordinary. the massacre in las vegas was the 200 and 73rd mass shooting in the united states this year. last year, i posted the name and photo of every victim of a mass the wall outside my office. not enough. it's never enough. about aow i learned 14-year-old killed on her porch next to her mother. killed at ad cookout pushing children out of the way of gunfire. a two-year-old who survived a heart transplant just to be killed by her father with the rest of her family. this has to stop. moments of silence provide little c

rk: go back to the columbine -- good point. it's the polarization of our politics. it's people lining up on the side of a powerful corporate interest with a lot of money who by the way happens to support a lot of candidates with a lot of resources to get them elected to office. and that's a problem. and it needs to be addressed. reporter: how do you overcome that? mark: we've been working to overcome that with the resources that we have. right? to put the people in office that will accept this as a public health issue, that will work to come up with responsible and sensible solutions that by the way protect the second amendment. but at the same time keep guns out of the wrong hands. now, the resources are not balanced. so we obviously are always looking, you know -- you know, it's quite out of balance until we work on fixing campaign finance reform, it will stay out of balance. reporter: mark, if congress didn't do anything after gabby was shot and didn't do anything after orlando or sandy hook, what gives you any hope at this point they'll do something now? mark: r

after columbine we close the gun show loophole. after aurora we strengthen our background checks, in a western state. last year they blocked 8704 people from buying guns. that may sound like a lot, but 380,000 people apply for guns in colorado last year. that means just 2% of those folks who applied were blocked, and 98% able to buy a gun without a problem. who was that 2% that colorado was blocking but congress fails to block? among them were murderers and rapists and kidnappers domestic abusers. no one can come to this floor tell me colorado is worse off because we kept guns out of the hands of those people. the average wait time for those background checks was 12 minutes. that strikes me as a fair trade-off to keep guns out of the hands of murderers, kidnappers and rapists. but here in washington, despite now an annual tragedy, tragedy after tragedy congress has done nothing. we haven't even done simple things. like's the gun show loophole or stop people on the terrorists watchlist buying weapons. this isn't about taking guns aw

. >>> plus responding to emergencies, we talked to a doctor who has been there for columbine massacrefood. water. internet. we need it to live. but what we don't need are surprises, like extra monthly fees. i see you, fee, played by legendary actress anjelica huston. you got me, mark. we just want fast internet for one, simple rate. for all the streaming and the shopping and the newsing, but most of all... for the this. internet for one everyday simple price and no extra monthly fees. in san francisco tonight, the head of emergency >>> well, the shooting in las vegas certainly overwhelmed local hospitals. in san francisco the head of emergency medicine talks about what the bay area needs to do to prepare for mass casualty event here. >>> nbc mark mathews met with him during a drill with treating earthquake victims. >> he was called out to meet the victims at columbine. 13 years later he was on duty when james holmes opened fire. >> i had a chance to see some of these events unfold and had opportunity to learn lessons how we can be better prepared. >> reporter: i met him at emergency h

the first time i was ever around a shooting was columbine, 1999. i spent a couple of weeks there as a student journalist and they learned a lot from columbine that has been used in shootings, that has been used even in this investigation so hopefully there is something to come out of this one. thank you, christine. when we continue here from las vegas, the president wheels up for vegas in less than four hours. hoping for a smoother trip than his stop in puerto rico where he suggested there was not a quote real catastrophe. >> and they were just enjoying the music when their lives were cut short, taken from their families far too soon. we continue to remember the victims of the las vegas massacre. hi, i'm the internet! you know what's difficult? adulting... hi, guys. i'm back. time to slay! no,i have a long time girlfriend. you know what's easy? building your website with godaddy. get your domain today and get a free trial of gocentral. build a better website in under an hour. >> i'm dave briggs back live in las vegas where the president is expected

. >> not to mention columbine, the list goes on and off on. >> i was there at columbine, two studentntente heard the school, ended up killing 13 individuals back in 1999. so you mention simply can't get worse. you thought about the last one >> but it did. >> and here we go. >> so we know president trump is going to be speaking at 10:30, we will car it live here on fox 29, stay tuned to the station on fox29.com for more updates. hey, guys. where are the cookies for the... bake sale? bake... bake sale? need to bake in a hurry? use new country crock buttery sticks with sunflower oil. there's no softening required. so baking is delicious and easy. ooh, cookies! ah, ah, ah! (laughter) >> live from new york city, it is the wendy williams show. now, here's wendy. [cheering] [applause] [cheering]

we talk to a man who we met who came from of all places columbine, where there was a mass shooting some years ago. here's what he told us about why he want d to be here with his daughter. >> i lived through the cloolumbe shooter and worked at one of the trauma centers there and we took care some of patient, my wife and i, also a nurse at sunrise and i work there too. it's just hard. it's hard. really is. it's going to take a while. it's hard. >> reporter: so we've got a wide range of people here out of town and some people who were at the concert themselves and some people are here because they had friends. remember, there were 20,000 people in the core group at that concert. so in this community of las vegas, the ripples are everywhere. it seems just about everywhere we go we find somebody who knew somebody who was at the show, going to be at the show. now the grieving and mourning and all of this will continue for a long time to come but the bottom line is that this is a community and community that's really trying to come together to support each other. back to you. >> listening to t

we learned the lessons from columbine and aurora and we as an industry have to move forward. led by two people who will be mad. captain kittelson. he is very humble. he doesn't want to be recognized. and captain evan hannah. those two gentlemen for the last four or five years drove this boat from the fire department and the police department that built this system with the committee that came together to vet everything out. they have done this and acquired the equipment through funding. we will be writing reports as a result of this incident. the work they have done and we have done as a whole is going to change the fire service and the way we integrate with partners on critical things. at this point in time i will take a few questions so our response is i will call the questions off. i do ask as you sit with the men that you don't warm swarm them. they came back today where we are as an organization and what we need to do to go forward to get better and stay healthy so we can have long worthwhile careers. don't overwhelm them. they came back knowing they will be at the thron

after columbine, that all changed. now the idea is you just have to go right to the attacker, even in some cases if you have to step over people to get there. you have to stop an ongoing active shooter attack, or you're going to see an even worse body count than we saw here. it was already tragic enough. liz: now, we were she just in a split screen there, the inside of the sniper's nest. the murderer videotaped himself before the shooting. we're going to get into the mind of this killer. who does that? >> yeah. well, someone who, obviously, some kind of sociopath who disconnected yourself with the consequences of your reaction. i mean, that seems obvious at this point. but what's puzzling about it is typically in my experience and in the secret service, we dealt specifically with assassination attempts and also with school shootings as well with other reasons not related to this. but they have some expertise in that. and there's usually some form of expression about the attack beforehand. they may have said something t

. >> there has been a study since columbine and they say most deaths occur in the first ten minutes. >> at that point if you didn't have a ho montagenous s.w.a.t. immunity, a team that worked together, we've learned post-columbine is you can't do that. >> they waited and some of the people like the teacher bled out after laying on the floor after four hours. >> and i have to give kudos to the las vegas police department and their sheriff's department. as a former fbi s.w.a.t. team leader, what happened with the initial assault, the first guys that got up there the only one 11 minutes that works probably took the attention of the shooter away from the two windows in his barricaded situation, and that slowed him down. it goes from a hasty assault which was that we were doing to a deliberate assault as soon as he stops shooting because the only reason you would make an dynamic entry is this, first thing, stop more killing. second thing, if it's a hostage situation. we didn't believe there were hostages inside. now you take a step barks put together a plan, you bring in folks that have e

her friends were inside columbine sfwl they had an experience they went through. that. >> reporter: who can fert the pulse nightclub shooting in june of 2016. which had the distinction of being the deadliest shooting in before yesterday. in the club, she believes like hearse survivors in las vegas will deal with guilt. >> i felt like there was more i could have done for my cousin who was killed in the shooting. >> tonight a who's who of politicians. the governor was here and the mayor. everybody seemed to be talking about stronger gun laws for the country. >> thank you for that report. so much love going out to all the those affected by this. one man from lee high valley was staying at the mandalay bay. two flors below the shooter. when he opened fire. ben sweenny says he doesn't need a tv to see what happened in las vegas. he lived it. he was staying on the 30th floor. sunday night. he says he trying to sleep when a series of loud bangs woke him up. >> i was probably 30 feet away from this guy. killing all these people. all the shots i heard. one in every three p

. >> the chief arrived to council comrades, he was on the front lines of the columbine shooting and knows firsthand the signs of ptsd. >> i felt like crying a lot. i felt i was on edge. i'd be yelling at people i would never do that before. >> an incredibly impactful night. >> jeff is from vegas, trained to counsel first responders. >> we're starting the healing process now, we take it seriously, and we want all of our members to be healthy after a traumatic event. >> the symptoms can be triggered by stressful events, so a long term support system is key. >> paranoid, you know, even just being in my house alone last night was difficult. noises aren't bothering me. but even coming down here to the strip and just realizing on that night, it was the quietest i've ever heard the las vegas strip. >> after rushing in to care for others, now the caregivers may need help too. dr. john torres, nbc news, las vegas. >>> up next, how the long search for justice may be over in a racially charged murder case. among those arrested, two law enforcement officers. >>> investigators say they have solved a r

crystal woodman miller survived the massacre in columbine, colorado. it does. of course i go back immediately to what i experienced at my school. but even more than being upset or zandvoort reliving those, my heart just absolutely upset or zandvoort reliving those, my heartjust absolutely breaks upset or zandvoort reliving those, my heart just absolutely breaks for the people who now have an incredibly long road ahead of them, road of recovery —— upset or sad for reliving. we all belong to a club that we wish we were not a part of. u nfortu nately that we wish we were not a part of. unfortunately my heart just that we wish we were not a part of. unfortunately my heartjust breaks because i know what's ahead of them andi because i know what's ahead of them and i know in some way what they are dealing with now. crystal, it is now, what, 18 years since those terrible events at columbine? it is a name that will unfortunately a lwa ys a name that will unfortunately always be associated, whatever the nice things about that part of colorado, will always be ass

that is not to be real related to gravity. >> you talk about -- >> we saw what happened at columbine. we saw what happened at aurora, colorado, and we saw from the reports that these people died in the lack of interaction at some points with the police departments and we knew we had to fix that. >> did you have the staff inside mandalay bay upon the 32nd floor during the night? >> we did not. i'll take two more questions. i'll take no more questions. [laughter] thank you for your attendance today and i want to reiterate these general men right here in the front row that were either there enjoying the events and got thrown into this less and those who responded to those who came in from home thank you. thank you very much. please be gentle. they are not trained specialist so please be gentle with them. thank you. the rig is outback for those who wish to go outside. we do have it out there. we should deduct the front. dedicate all my updates on the fly. this is how it works. it's out front so if anybody wants to go around and look at that, you can see with your vehicle is. thank you. >>

whether it's columbine or sandy hook.re's been many more shootings in these mass shootings than the terrorist attacks. >> that's such a valid point, tom. we put a graphic up of some of the other mass shootings. the most horrific mass shootings in this country. and you look at that graphic, orlando, that was 49 people. and it shouldn't be that way. we should -- these things should be seared in our minds. they should be numbers intolerable to everyone. mass shooting is defined as four people. and those happen almost every day in this country. >> they do happen every day, as a matter of fact, matt. you look at the number of people who are wounded in gun shooting accidents or killed in accidental shooting, five or six every day, going on like that across the country. we need to have that debate. i speak as a sportsman who has guns. i spent time in the west. i grew up in south dakota. the first thing i got when i was 12 years old, was a rifle. but there was not this mayhem going on at that time. everybody knew and had a course

and as a result what occurred in columbine, what occurred in sacramento, what occurred in boston, whathe pulse nightclub, police response has changed. by the fact that the fire department is standing with us is monumental. okay. so we have found it's better instead of securing a perimeter and hoping the person doesn't continue to do acts of carnage associated with their actions, that even a small police response will stop the suspect's actions. and so to answer your question in reference to the mandalay bay, that training we were listening and paying attention. officers on their own without direction of a supervisor knew what they had to do. they came together, formed a team, made a response. and they didn't wait on s.w.a.t. okay. they said we have to stop. it's easy to say we are waiting on s.w.a.t. they are experts intact cal intrusion. but our officers took it upon themselves to act. >> [ inaudible question ] >> no. patrol officers evaluated floor by floor of the space between 29 and 32, where the suspect was, they formed the security, they evacuated rooms, and went around the perim

citizens have with mass destruction, whether columbine, sandy hook, what is happening that's going oni support as former law enforcement official, i support stronger good control, anything that would reduce violence, because i've seen it firsthand and impact it has. but certainly i'm not so sure that the tougher laws as proposed would minimum mice the atrocities that we saw that took place in las vegas. >> i hear you. and i know you know your guns, law enforcement. i know a lot of critics would disagree. and we'll have those conversations down the road. today it is about the investigation and victims and survivors. thank you so much for your in sight into this investigation. and, again, that news conference set to begin any moment now on the investigation side of all of this. i'm brooke baldwin, thanks for being with me. jake tapper starts now. >>> thanks, brooke. they have found even more weapons. but still no motive. "the lead" starts right now. breaking news, we are just now getting our first look at the las vegas killers hotel room. as investigators try to find out what possibly c

we say each and every time there is an event -- and can go back to columbine, we say never again, never again in aurora, charleston, sandy hook, orlando, now in las vegas. and yes, on the floor of the house of representatives tonight we will have a moment of silence and we will pray for the families who have been so hurt. but the families who have been hurt and american people need to know that we are going to do more, that we are going to undertake action on their behalf so that we can keep them safe from this gun violence. it has to stop. it has to stop now. >> congress woman, that goes to what we're hearing, i mentioned earlier in the hour, senator chris murphy on the floor making a direct argument for gun control. he spoke out after sandy hook as know. white house today said you can't have policy response to the incident if you don't have sufficient facts yet. do you disagree with that? do you think you know enough to -- go ahead. >> we need a policy response because this is not a one time incident. yes it is the largest mass murder that we have seen from gun violence in the united

hood, columbine. each of these massacres has unique facts and their own awful villains and tragic heart-breaking stories, as well as sheer rows and inspiring acts of courage and selflesslenessse. president trump has flown to sites of tragedy in four weeks. you sat down with speaker of the house of representatives paul ryan to discuss the president's response to all of these event, as well as breaking news about twitter and facebook and the progress of the must have in the eyes of the gop tax bill. we begin our conversation with speaker ceremonial office by talking about the bump stocks found in the hotel room of the killer in las vegas. bump stock is a new term for many americans, including me and the speaker. here is that interview. speaker paul ryan, thanks for sitting down with me. >> congratulations on the new show. >> i'm enjoying it. but it is a grim week in las vegas. i want to begin there. the president visited this city this week and immediately talked about legislation. john cornyn wants hea

thousand eight on april twentieth one thousand nine hundred ninety two teenagers opened fire at columbine high school and denver colorado killing thirteen people and injuring more than twenty others and eleven nineteen in the morning eighteen year old eric harris and seventeen year old dylan clear bold began shooting the fellow students outside of the school while wearing trench coats they've been moved into the school shooting most of their victims in the school library after the shooting rampage the two teens turned the guns on themselves and committed suicide every shooting that i mentioned sparked a national dialogue and debate over gun control sally as we can see not much has changed and these events keep repeating and it seems that right now there is not a clear answer as to what should be done to prevent these types of attacks from happening again and washington actually banks are tea. we're going to move on and checking arrest some other headlines now the canadian city of edmonton is in a state of alert after a suspected quote isis not of a to attack over the weekend the lone assa

she went to college in colorado, and five roommates were in the columbine school during the mass shooting in 1999. >> they had this experience that they've gone through that made them so strong and aware. they taught us so much. >> marisa tells us she is going to las vegas to help in the aftermath of the mass shooting. >>> today lawmakers will bring the house gun violence debate to the house floor in washington, d.c. minority leader nancy pelosi along with congressman john lewis are expected to demand immediate passage of a bipartisan bill to strengthen background checks. former congresswoman gabby giffords is also expected to be there. she resigned from congress after a gunman shot her in the head in 2011. people who want stricter regulations say it would help prevent these types of tragedies. others argue that tougher gun laws would not make a difference. people we spoke with say they'd back any proposed law that would make the country a safer one including background checks for gun buyers. >> i think that someone gets something in their head, they're going to find a way to do it. wheth

en tiroteos como columbine en colorado el objetivo era controlar la situacin.e saber como actuar en estos casos. oficial fernando gonzlez/ sheriff del condado de l.a. "no solamente en eventos, pero en su trabajo, su empleo consideren la manera más rápida para evacuar el lugar". el primer consejo del sheriff es intentar huir de la zona de riesgo tratando de quedar fuera de la vista del atacante y piense sus movimientos. oficial fernando gonzlez/ sheriff del condado de l.a. "voy a dejar todo, mi cartera, bolsas, lo que sea porque tiene que pensar en protegerse, salir y evacuar". pero que hacer si el agresor dispara desde el piso 32 de un edificio como ocurri en la masacre de las vegas? oficial fernando gonzlez/ sheriff del condado de l.a.
