>> i'm dara brown and we have breaking news out of las vegas where there is an active shooting scene on the las vegas strip. according to las vegas p.d. we have reports that two people are dead, 24 injured and 12 critical. apparently there was an active shooter scene at the route 90 harvest. it happened around 10:30 p.m. las vegas time. knsd has been covering this. we'll be going to them. joe, if you would, tell us what the scene looks like there. >> reporter: yeah, dara, the four seasons is part of the mandole bay complex. we're overlooking the position i've been holding for the past couple of hours. we want to give you a look outside the strip. this is the only activity you see, are police of looking a few white lights right now. as far as retirement pedestrians. what i want to show you is kiddy corner. this is where this concert, the fe taffe val for the pass few dayers. that's thousands of people coming in. in the center of the screen where you're looking right now. a concert was taking place. country music concert. people thought they heard -- they thought it was fireworks. then they realized that shots were being fired. at this

the other part is thank god las vegas p.d. did an excellent job. as fran mentioned earlier and there's no question about it, had that not happened, there would be a lot more part-time. >> we heard he had some minor rupp-in with officials. i like what you said earlier. just because he doesn't have a criminal record double mean he didn't have a criminal past. >> right. what we'll find as the day progresses and tomorrow is what the police actually communicated with him when they rye spomded to his home and how many times. again, just because there's no history with respect to the interaction. clearly it could be that neighbors had called on him. it could be he's caused problems inside a neighborhood where plivgs responded to quell an ins stent, but it will speak to his ment mental health? >> yes that a layperson could not. >> no. that's a good question when you look at the monitor, where mandalay bay is and where the crime scene was, where he was shooting into the concert, you're talking 400 yards, 32 flars up. taking into account the wind shears that

again, this really goes back to -- kudos to las vegas p.d. as they say before. excellent job in containment. you can only expect they're going to go after this expeditiously and theirly. they're going to take physical evidence and mark everything. they'll be in there for 24 hours inside that house, but they will mark and bag and tag everything and then the investigation will begin. >> paul, in your estimation or fran, are there things that -- you mentioned they work closely, the hotels in las vegas which accommodate enormous numbers of guests. they work closely with police. is there anything other hotels can be doing smarter? >> you know, it's hard to say. mandalay bay is a really good -- a fine reputation. it's really hard to say what they can do differently because it's going to speak to the balance of security and customer service and how -- you want to make people feel welcome when you come in a hotel. this is a luxury report. so how much are we willing to give up. the fact that someone came in with a fire arm would mean the only thing they could do differen

and we know from metro las vegas p.d., the shooter is in a room in the hotel. that again backs up shooting from an elevated position. it's coming together in bits and pieces. it didn't sound from the quick review a couple of times i heard the video that it was anything that one person could not have done. it could have been just one person. there was some semiautomatic fi fire after the fully automatic fire but that may have been a shooter with a hague, another rifle, switch -- a handgun, another rifle, switched to semiautomatic rifle or a police officer shooting when he saw the flashes at the window. we're not clear on that. shooting into a crowd that large with a submachine gun from an elevated position, it's going to cause this number of casualties. of course, the high-velocity rifle rounds are devastating, as you know. >> let me ask you one question if i may. and again, it's important to emphasize, we don't know anything yet about the shooter or motivations or identity. we are expecting a press conference from the las vegas police department that will begin

they're securing the street and the house for las vegas p.d. so they can execute a search warrant.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 wa

as for the investigation, as you would expect, the las vegas p.d. is in charge, helped by the fbi, the atf, the state authorities as well. and we know that the suspect killed himself according to the police before police actually were able to storm the room. they were on their way to the room when apparently he shot himself. but through that vantage point, look at the view he would have had from the 32nd floor out his hotel window down to the outside mass audience of people there. >> tom, let's help our audience, because in addition to looking at stephen paddock on the right, on the left you can see the window open. what that is is the room on the 32nd floor of the mandalay bay where the glass was broken through. and when you see something moving, that's the curtain. the curtain from that room. if you could speak to this, that vantage point, a 1700-foot range. he's 32 stories up with over ten rifles in that room. the access he had to 22,000 concert goers. >> reporter: yeah, the experts say he would have had, that would have been well within the rang

las vegas, we have some aud audio. it is short of the moment the local las vegas p.d. swat team stormed what they then knew to be the hotel room, the corner suite on the 32nd floor. >> we're going to sit on the suspect's door. i need nerve that hallway to be aware of it and get back. we need to pop this and see if we get any type of response from this guy to see if he's in here or moved somewhere else. >> all units on the 32nd floor, swath has explosive breach. everyone needs to move back. all units move back. >> breach, breach, breach. >> with us to talk about what we've heard, jim cavanaugh, a retired atf special agent in charge and former hostage negotiator himself. jim, i'm guessing you're going to tell me that's how it's done. >> that's how it done. it can't be done better. las vegas metro s.w.a.t. did textbook case and also patrol. you had the sheriff on talking about putting rifles. we called that s.w.a.t. light where patrol officers can get a vest on, get a rifle and respond to the emergency. likely they got up there to the 29th floor, swat is coming, they kind

one was on the room service cart outside the door says las vegas p.d. sheriff joe lombardo. >> was he recording or transmitting? >> i'm not aware of any transmission, but he had cameras. >> how many cameras? >> i don't know. >> for what purpose. anybody coming to take him into custody. >> so essentially you have a recording of him carrying out this carnage. >> no, that's not what i'm essentially saying. that is being evaluated. the fbi took all digital and electronic evidence into custody and that's what we're evaluating. >> so there you see there's a lot of electronic evidence they're going to be evaluating. also this. we've learned from the atf that stephen paddock bought a gun or guns as late as thursday. that's three days before the attack he carried out behind me. the bottom line i learned yesterday is you can buy as many semiautomatic weapons as you want and the atf tells us they wouldn't know about it because there's no licensing to record that. jill snyder of the aff says they have agents looking into whether ranges. perhaps the entire list of w

las vegas journal shows the mayhem unfolding on the ground. shortly after gunman stephen paddock opened fire on concertgoers sunday night. investigators have produced a profile of a gunman that las vegas p.d. sheriff joe lombardo called disturbed and dangerous. >> what we know is stephen paddock spent decades acquiring weapons and ammo and living a secret life. >> reporter: cbs reporter norah o'donnell reported. >> how many firearms were >> from october 2016 to 2017 he purchased 33 firearms, the majority of them rifles. >> are you looking into the possibility there may have been some kind of mental issue, something that happened in october 2016 that compelled him to purchase those weapons. >> yes. >> you are. >> yes. >> what have you uncovered? >> i haven't. i don't have the information. >> paddock has left no suicide note and so far his motivation is unclear. it's unclear whether paddock targeted the tanks. police said paddock intended to evade capture and survive, but minutes after the shooting began, a hotel security guard showed up outside his suite. >> his bravery was amazing. >> paddock fired over 200 rounds, hitting the security guard. >> clear rooms. >> the weekend before the shoo

talking to law enforcement here, las vegas p.d. just the look on their faces. standing here in awe of what has happened and what this community and people don't realize that. you come to vegas and party on the strip but there is a massive community like any other city in this country. those people obviously are dealing with this. loved ones were here inside this facility at this concert and we also know that people came from as far away as canada, alaska, many people here from southern california. los angeles police department is saying two of their officers were here and were injured. the information keeps coming, sandra. we expect more at that press conference. now that the sun is up, to see those windows blown out really kind of shows you the perspective of what that shooter had and they've been elling us from very early on he had a plan. as we learn more about when he checked in and the other details, that plan becomes very clear. he was here to kill. >> shannon: adam, thank you for the update. we'll get back to you shortly. >> bill: we're getting a bit more

assiduously with our great partners who have been in the lead on this from the beginning, the las vegas metro p.de doing a lot of work in las vegas and many other places to get to the bottom of that. >> are you surprised we don't know this soon why this happened so often with these shooters it's some insane murderous ideology but they do it to make a point. is it possible that this particular killer didn't want to make a point. >> anything is possible. this person was not on our radar prior to this event so we have a challenging bit of work to put the pieces back together. >> are you having difficulty getting into the devices after san bernardino there was such a conflict between apple and the federal government about whether or not those devices could be unlocked. is that going to be an issue >> we haven't had those issues to date but our exploitation has begun in the last 24 hours and we'll see how that goes. >> what's unfolded that we don't know already >> there's been incredible coverage you've done a great job in the media of covering it to date it's the quieter and harder work that we have

> how did you hear that he was -- >> we got phone calls from las vegas called, and we're cooperating with the cops. we have talked to the p.de -- this is like you called me up and said your next-door neighbor did this and i'd go, wow. my next-door neighbor did that, all i've ever seen him do is mow his yard. the fact that my brother did this is -- there's no -- there's nothing. >> your message to these people, these families? >> there's not even anything i can say. i mean, i'm -- how do you i mean, my brother did this. i -- this is like it was done, you know, like he shot us. i mean -- if he'd have killed my kids i couldn't be more dumbfounded. i mean -- it doesn't -- there's nothing. >> the last communication -- >> there's nothing. i can show you the text. he said how's mom? did you get power? i mean -- that was it. there's absolutely, we have -- like i said, we have nothing for you. i mean, i hope someone finds out and figures out because we'd like to know. >> were you a close family? >> he seemed like a good son. he was checking on your mom. >> i live here and he lives in mesquite and once again, public records stuff you
