EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On October 1, 2017, at approximately 2118 hours, Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino (Mandalay Bay) Security Officer Jesus Campos was assigned to check several Hotel Service Optimization System (HotSOS) alarms from various rooms inside the hotel.1 Room 32-129 was the last of the rooms Security Officer Campos was assigned to check. Security Officer Campos was on the 30th floor and responded to the 32nd floor via the stairwell in the north end of the 100 Wing. Security Officer Campos attempted to enter the hallway to the 100 Wing, but the door would not open. He took the stairs to the 33 rd floor and used the guest elevator to access the 32nd floor. Once on the 32nd floor, Security Officer Campos entered the foyer leading to the stairwell. He discovered an “L” bracket screwed into the door and doorframe that prevented the door leading into the stairwell from opening. Security Officer Campos called his dispatch center with the house phone located in the foyer to report the discovery. Security Officer Campos heard what he described as a rapid drilling sound coming from Room 32-135 after he hung up the phone. As he walked down the 100 Wing hallway, Campos heard what he described as automatic gunfire coming from the area of Room 32-135 and realized he had been shot in the left calf. He took cover in the alcove of rooms 32-122 and 32-124 and utilized both his cellular phone and radio to notify his dispatch he was shot. Security Officer Campos advised he was shot with a BB or pellet gun. While waiting for other security personnel to arrive Security Officer Campos continued to hear gunfire coming from the room. Engineer Stephen Schuck finished fixing a water leak on the 62nd floor when he was directed to respond to the 32nd floor in reference to the bracket preventing the stairwell door from opening. Engineer Schuck used the service elevator in the 200 Wing to access the 32 nd floor. When he arrived on the 32nd floor, he gathered his tools and equipment and walked from the 200 Wing to the 100 Wing. As Engineer Schuck walked up the hallway of the 100 Wing, he observed Security Officer Campos poke his head out of an alcove. Engineer Schuck then heard rapid gunfire coming from the end of the 100 Wing hallway that lasted approximately 10 seconds. When the gunfire stopped, he heard Security Officer Campos tell him to take cover. Engineer Schuck stepped into an alcove and gunfire again erupted down the hallway coming from Room 32-135. The gunfire lasted a few seconds then stopped. The gunfire started again after a brief pause, but Engineer Schuck believed it was directed outside and not down the hallway. Meanwhile, inside the Las Vegas Village over 50 Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) personnel were on overtime assignments for the Route 91 Harvest music festival being held at the Las Vegas Village venue. The initial gunshots were heard on an officer’s body worn camera (BWC). As the suspect (Stephen Paddock) targeted the concertgoers with gunfire, officers quickly determined they were dealing with an active shooter and broadcast the information over the radio. 1 A HotSOS Alarm is triggered by a guest room door that is left ajar for a predetermined amount of time. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 7 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 The crowd inside the Las Vegas Village started reacting to the gunfire, and performer Jason Aldean ran off the stage. Officers and concertgoers began treating victims who were struck by gunfire. They also tried to get concertgoers out of the venue in a safe manner. Officers determined the gunfire was coming from an elevated position, possibly from the Mandalay Bay. Medical personnel were requested for multiple people struck by gunfire. As the active shooter incident was occurring, two LVMPD officers were in the security office of the Mandalay Bay handling a call for service in reference to two females who were in custody for trespassing. The officers heard the radio broadcast of gunfire at the Route 91 Harvest music festival. Both officers, along with security personnel, exited the security office and responded toward the Las Vegas Village. As they were making their way through the casino, security personnel advised the officers of an active shooter on the 32 nd floor of the hotel.2 The officers then directed security to escort them to that location. The officers and security personnel entered the Center Core guest elevators and were again advised the shooter was on the 32 nd floor. The officers made a decision to respond to the 31st floor and take the stairwell to the 32nd floor. LVMPD officers converged on the Las Vegas Village and Mandalay Bay. Officers formed multiple Strike Teams and entered the Mandalay Bay from various entrance points. A team of officers, including a Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) officer, reached the 32nd floor via the stairwell in the 100 Wing. Officers did not hear gunfire coming from Room 32-135. Officers were able to manually breach the “L” bracket on the stairwell door and gain access to the hallway. Officers immediately observed a food service cart, which had wires running under the door into Room 32-134, and prepared themselves for the possibility of an improvised explosive device (IED). The decision was made to use an explosive breach to make entry into Room 32-135. After a successful breach of the doors to Room 32-135, officers entered and found a male (Paddock) deceased on the floor. Paddock appeared to have a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Officers cleared the remainder of the room and observed numerous rifles in various locations as well as hundreds of expended casings. A second explosive breach was utilized to gain access to Room 32-134 through the connecting doors. Immediately after the breach, a SWAT officer negligently discharged his rifle. Officers cleared Room 32-134, finding several more rifles in the room. Officers, medical personnel, and concertgoers continued the evacuation of victims in the Las Vegas Village venue. Several triage sites were established in the venue and surrounding area. Injuries ranged from being minor in nature to fatal. Hundreds of wounded were transported to area hospitals by ambulance and privately-owned citizen vehicles. As the LVMPD’s investigative response occurred, it was decided early on (post-shooting) that the LVMPD’s Homicide Section would handle the documentation of the venue and 31 bodies found inside the venue and on the exterior perimeter. Homicide detectives worked closely with crime scene analysts and investigators from the Clark County Office of the Coroner Medical Examiner (CCOCME). 2 Information obtained from LVMPD BWC. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 8 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 It was further decided the LVMPD’s Force Investigation Team (FIT) would take responsibility for the Mandalay Bay crime scene to include the collection of evidence, documentation of the scene, and the collection of Paddock’s body. This was all completed with the assistance from the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Evidence Recovery Teams (ERT). FBI ERT handled the collection of all evidence related to the Mandalay Bay and the Las Vegas Village venue. FIT was given primary investigative responsibility over the investigation. The mission of FIT is to provide thorough, accurate, and unbiased criminal investigations related to an LVMPD member’s use of deadly force and other qualifying events resulting in death or substantial bodily harm. LVMPD policy states that FIT is responsible for the criminal investigation of deadly force and other high-risk critical incidents resulting in death or serious bodily injury. FIT is the primary investigative unit for any incident wherein the department member, during the course of his/her official duties, is the victim of a violent crime and sustains substantial injury.3 During the initial response to both scenes, FIT learned two LVMPD uniformed officers, Brady Cook and Casey Clarkson, were struck by gunfire. Preliminary information was received that Officer Charleston Hartfield was unaccounted for and presumed to have been struck by gunfire as well. Officer Hartfield was attending the festival in an off-duty capacity and assisted concertgoers in escaping the gunfire before he was fatally wounded. These factors are what initiated a FIT response. In the days, weeks, and months following the 1 October shooting, LVMPD worked, alongside the FBI as well as numerous other local, state and federal agencies, to determine why the shooting occurred. Briefings looked to answer the following two questions: 1) Was there anyone, other than Paddock who took part in or assisted in the commission of these crimes? 2) What was Paddock’s motive? This report was derived from the LVMPD’s preliminary investigative report that was released on January 18, 2018. The findings from that preliminary report remain accurate and in accordance with this final report. This report was authored to provide the reader with more information about who, what, when, and where. Regretfully, this report will not be able to address the why. FIT believed it was important to expand upon the suspectology of Paddock. Interviews from family members are summarized in this report to include the Marilou Danley interviews. Early in the investigation, Danley was a person of interest for the LVMPD and FBI to locate and interview. FIT expanded the sequence of events in this report to provide the reader with a greater knowledge of Paddock’s actions leading up to the day of the shooting. There is a strong belief among investigators that the events leading up to 1 October began with Paddock’s actions and behavior surrounding his stay at The Ogden Condominiums (The Ogden) located in downtown Las Vegas. Whether he used the Life Is Beautiful music festival as a rehearsal or not, we will 3 LVMPD Department Manual 1/409.01 Internal Oversight and Constitutional Policing Bureau. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 9 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 never know. What we do know is the actions and behaviors displayed by Paddock at The Ogden were consistent with those displayed at Mandalay Bay. Also documented in this report is a detailed account of when Paddock purchased all of his weapons. Summarized are the forensic results from each gun that was recovered from rooms 32-135 and 32-134. This report details which guns were discharged and how many rounds each gun fired. DNA analysis concluded that there were no DNA anomalies to indicate anyone other than Stephen Paddock was responsible. Note: This is a criminal investigative report. This is not a review of every officer’s actions or responses that took place that night. This report is meant to document the facts as to what happened. This report also provides the reader with background information as to the actions taken by investigative personnel. An administrative review, which is an internal process, will address issues surrounding tactics, training, decision making, policy and protocols. II.

That number does not take into consideration the hundreds and possibly thousands who were walking along Las Vegas Boulevard outside the Las Vegas Village venue at the time of the shooting. The goal of FIT was to document those who actually sustained any type of physical injury, regardless of the extent or degree. FIT used information received from local hospitals and medical facilities, crime scene analysts and detectives who responded to the primary and secondary scenes, and individual police reports to immediately begin compiling a comprehensive list of individuals who sustained physical injuries and individualized detailed accounts of the incident. Based on the collective information that has been received to date in reference to the 1 October massacre, the following has been ascertained: LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 18 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, victims locally sought treatment at Centennial Hills Hospital Medical Center, Desert Springs Hospital Medical Center, Henderson Hospital, Mountain View Hospital, Southern Hills Hospital & Medical Center, Southwest Medical Associates, Spring Valley Hospital Medical Center, St. Rose Dominican – Rose de Lima Campus, San Martin Campus, Siena Campus, Dignity Health neighborhood hospitals, Summerlin Hospital Medical Center, Sunrise Hospital & Medical Center, Sunrise Quick/Urgent Care, University Medical Center (UMC), UMC Urgent Care, and Valley Hospital Medical Center.

LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 37 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 Detailed Overview During the course of the investigation, law enforcement personnel conducted numerous recorded interviews with LVMPD employees, casino employees, and citizens. Along with the recorded interviews, written voluntary statements were obtained. These consisted of people attending the Route 91 Harvest music festival, people in the area at the time of the incident, and others with knowledge of the events. LVMPD asked employees to document their actions for those involved with the incident. The following information was taken from witness statements and compiled into a chronological description of the events: On October 1, 2017, LVMPD had 51 personnel assigned to work special events overtime for the Route 91 Harvest music festival. The personnel staffing consisted of a lieutenant, 5 sergeants, 44 officers, and a civilian. The event had officers staffed from 1300-0100 hours with officers arriving and securing at various times. The specific assignments for the event were:  West traffic (a sergeant, 10 officers)  East traffic (a sergeant, 10 officers)  Interior entry/gates (a sergeant, six officers)  Interior early squad (a sergeant, eight officers)  Interior late squad (a sergeant, eight officers)  Event coordinator (an officer)  Command post (an officer, a civilian) The assignments were supervised by Lieutenant Spencer, who was designated as the incident commander for the festival. At approximately 2118 hours, Mandalay Bay Security Officer Campos was working his normal duties when he was notified of several HotSOS calls in the 100 Wing tower where he was assigned to monitor. Once an alarm is received, the standard operating procedure for the Mandalay Bay security staff is to call the room and attempt to contact the guest. If there is no answer, a security officer will be sent to check the door. HotSOS calls are common and occur numerous times throughout the day. The security dispatcher will typically close the alarm out once a security officer is assigned. Security Dispatcher Brett Buck notified Security Officer Campos to check several HotSOS calls. Room 32-129 was last on his list to check. Security Officer Campos was on the 30th floor and en route to Room 32-129 via the stairwell located at the north end of the 100 Wing. Security Officer Campos attempted to enter the foyer from the stairwell and discovered the door was secured and unable to be opened. The doors are to remain unlocked since the stairwell is a fire escape. The door has a handle but no locking mechanism. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 38 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 Security Officer Campos stated he walked down the stairwell to the 31st floor, entered the hallway, and walked to Center Core. He used the guest elevator to go to the 32nd floor. (Video surveillance showed Security Officer Campos took the stairwell up to the 33rd floor, then took a guest elevator to access the 32nd floor.) (Door secured by “L” bracket from stairwell and inside foyer.) Security Officer Campos proceeded directly to the end of the 100 Wing hallway, opened the inner door of the foyer entrance to the stairwell, and observed the “L” bracket screwed into the doorframe and door that opens into the stairwell. He realized this is what kept the door secured. Security Officer Campos utilized the house phone mounted inside the foyer to notify the security dispatcher of the bracket. The information was passed to the engineering section. (100 Wing hallway from Center Core toward Room 32-135.) LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 39 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 (Door leading from 100 Wing hallway into foyer and stairwell.) Security Officer Campos hung up the phone, heard what he described as a loud rapid drilling sound coming from Room 32-135. He believed the drilling sounded like it was coming from deep inside the room. While walking toward Center Core, Security Officer Campos heard gunfire coming from Room 32-135 and ran down the hallway. Security Officer Campos realized he was shot in his left calf as he took cover in the alcove of rooms 32-122 and 32-124. Using both his radio and cell phone, Security Officer Campos advised the security dispatcher he had been shot in the leg with a BB or pellet gun and was injured. He stayed in the alcove while on his phone with the dispatcher waiting for help. Security Officer Campos heard more gunshots coming from inside Room 32135, but no rounds were coming down the hallway. As country music performer Jason Aldean performed on stage, LVMPD officers working the interior of the event heard what they described as fireworks going off. Officer Hutchason and Special Events Coordinator Rodriquez, who were in the command post with security personnel, used the video monitors to look for the source of the noise. Upon recognizing the source of the noise to be gunfire, Coordinator Rodriguez directed all officers to change their radios to the Convention Center Area Command (CCAC) radio channel. Coordinator Rodriguez monitored both the Events radio channel and CCAC radio channel throughout the incident. LVMPD officers inside the Las Vegas Village recognized the sounds were coming from the southwest. Part of the crowd started to move toward the exits. Shortly after hearing the initial LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 40 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 gunfire, LVMPD officers heard the first long burst of described automatic gunfire. Once officers recognized the sound to be gunfire, they immediately searched for the gunman. Security personnel along with LVMPD officers Hendrex and Varsin were in the security office of Mandalay Bay with two females being detained for trespass. They became aware via the radio of an active shooter call. Security Manager Oelke headed toward the Luxor side of the property when another call came over the radio that a security officer had been shot with a pellet gun in the tower of the Mandalay Bay.22 Security Manager Oelke ran to Center Core guest elevators of the Mandalay Bay and met with security managers Sottile, Umstott, and LVMPD officers Hendrex and Varsin. As they arrived at the elevators, Engineering Supervisor Shannon Alsbury was holding the elevator door open. Engineering Supervisor Alsbury used a key to lock out the elevator and keep it from being stopped by guests trying to get on. There was conflicting information being broadcast on the exact location of the shooter(s), whether it was on the 29th, 31st, 32nd or the 33rd floors. While on the elevator, they decided to check all the floors. As the door opened on the 31st floor, security managers Oelke and Umstott and LVMPD officers Hendrex and Varsin exited and walked up the 100 Wing upon hearing gunshots coming from an unknown direction. Security Manager Sottile and Engineering Supervisor Alsbury continued to the 32nd floor on the elevator. At the Las Vegas Village, LVMPD officers observed the crowd move away from the southwest portion of the venue. They believed an active shooter was in that area. As officers moved toward the stage, they heard several more bursts of gunfire. Officers directed citizens to get on the ground as they looked for a gunman. As officers moved through the crowd, they observed several citizens wounded and deceased. Officer Polion advised LVMPD Dispatch of shots fired and multiple casualties. The radio traffic was accidently broadcast on South East Area Command (SEAC) radio channel. Officers assigned to the venue near Reno Avenue and Las Vegas Boulevard began to move south along Las Vegas Boulevard. They believed the gunfire was coming from the south end of Las Vegas Village. As they moved southbound, officers directed civilians away from the area. The officers received direct gunfire and took cover behind a wall as bullets impacted around them. Between bursts of gunfire, officers evacuated civilians and administered first aid to the wounded. Officers assigned to the venue near Mandalay Bay Drive and Las Vegas Boulevard heard the initial gunshots followed by a long burst of gunfire. Detective Balonek, who was on Mandalay Bay Drive east of Las Vegas Boulevard, believed the gunfire was coming from inside the Las Vegas Village or from an elevated position. He retrieved his binoculars from his vehicle and scanned the north-facing tower of Mandalay Bay. Approximately three-quarters of the way up the tower on the north end, Detective Balonek observed a silhouette of a male standing in a shooting position several feet back from a window. Detective Balonek could not see muzzle flashes; however, he did observe smoke. Detective Balonek could not broadcast on the radio, 22 Security Officer Campos. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 41 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 due to heavy radio use by other officers, so he switched to the Northeast Area Command (NEAC) channel and broadcast the shooter’s location. At the same time inside Mandalay Bay, Engineer Schuck was in a room on the 62 nd floor, fixing a water leak when he was directed by his radio dispatcher and supervisor to respond to the 32nd floor stairwell in the 100 Wing to remove the “L” bracket that Security Officer Campos had called and reported. Engineer Schuck utilized the 200 Wing service elevator to go down to the 32nd floor. He gathered his tools needed to remove the bracket and walked through the Center Core from the 200 Wing to the 100 Wing. Engineer Schuck walked approximately one-third of the way up the hallway when he observed Security Officer Campos poke his head into the hallway from a space between two rooms on Engineer Schuck’s right-hand side. Engineer Schuck heard the sound of rapid gunfire coming from the end of the hallway. Security Officer Campos looked out from his position and yelled for Engineer Schuck to take cover. Engineer Schuck immediately took a step to his left into the alcove between two rooms. Gunfire erupted down the hallway toward his direction. Engineer Schuck felt the concussion of the rounds pass where he was taking cover. An unknown object struck him in his back without causing injury other than a small bruise. Engineer Schuck also stated he could see blood coming from Security Officer Campos’ calf area. Below on the 31st floor, LVMPD officers Varsin and Hendrex, along with security managers Oelke and Umstott, walked up the 100 Wing when they heard gunfire coming from the 32 nd floor. As they moved from Center Core toward Room 31-135, several volleys of gunfire could be heard. When they reached the area of Room 31-134, Officer Hendrex instructed everyone to move back. Officers Varsin and Hendrex, along with the security managers moved back and took cover in an alcove. They remained in the alcove for just over two minutes. After leaving the alcove, they moved to the stairwell at the end of the hall. As they got closer to the stairwell, the gunfire continued, and they smelled gunpowder. They entered the 100 Wing stairwell and posted in that location. Detective Clarkson, assigned to the event in uniform, was on Las Vegas Boulevard north of Mandalay Bay Drive when he heard the initial shots and radio traffic advising of multiple casualties inside the Las Vegas Village. Detective Clarkson and other officers took cover and began searching for the shooter, believing the shots were coming from the west. As patrol cars and a prisoner transport van arrived at the intersection, Detective Clarkson and other officers moved toward the vehicles for cover with the intention of moving toward Mandalay Bay. CCAC patrol officers responded to the scene to assist. Officers Cook and Haynes arrived near Las Vegas Boulevard and Mandalay Bay Drive and parked their patrol vehicle. Officers Cook and Haynes moved towards the group Detective Clarkson was with. As the officers moved behind the patrol vehicles, they started receiving direct gunfire which impacted the ground and patrol vehicles around them. Detective Clarkson received a gunshot wound to the neck while taking cover behind a patrol vehicle. Officer Cook was struck by a bullet in his right bicep that continued into his chest. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 42 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 While behind the vehicles, officers realized the gunfire was coming from an elevated position and was directed at the patrol vehicles. During breaks in the gunfire, officers moved in teams of two from the patrol vehicle to a block wall for better cover. Detective Clarkson and Officer Cook were both transported to hospitals by separate LVMPD vehicles. (LVMPD vehicles struck by gunfire.) As the gunfire continued, officers inside the event moved through the Las Vegas Village and provided direction for people trying to exit. This included the actions of Officer Hartfield who was attending the concert in an off-duty capacity and was mortally wounded while taking police action. Officers located wounded persons, began first-aid measures, and coordinated medical efforts with off-duty medical personnel who were attending the concert. Officers also directed people towards exits and toward positions of cover and concealment. Exterior officers on the east side of the Las Vegas Village were swarmed by people as they fled the gunfire. Officers directed them to continue east and north as they recognized the gunfire was coming from Mandalay Bay. As officers began to encounter wounded civilians, casualty collection points were set up and first aid was rendered. Officers assisted in getting the wounded to hospitals via ambulances, private vehicles, and patrol cars. Exterior officers on the west side of the Las Vegas Village along Las Vegas Boulevard encountered people as they fled the venue. Officers knew the gunfire was coming from Mandalay Bay and directed people to stay behind cover and move to the north, away from gunfire. Officers LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 43 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 encountered several wounded people and provided first aid until they could be taken to medical personnel. As officers moved south, they formed Strike Teams and moved toward the Mandalay Bay. Sergeants Richmond, Riddle, and Van Nest each formed Strike Teams, consisting of overtime officers and patrol officers who responded the venue. The Strike Teams moved west across Las Vegas Boulevard and into the parking lot of the Luxor Hotel, then south onto the Mandalay Bay property. Upon entering Mandalay Bay, Strike Teams coordinated efforts with other LVMPD officers and security personnel already inside the casino. As Strike Teams entered the hotel through the main valet, they met hotel security and were directed to the Center Core guest elevators. Each group was given information the shooter was possibly on the 29th, 30th, or 31st floors, and they were escorted via elevator. After each group of officers were taken to the upper floors, they instructed the hotel security guards to lock out the elevators. A Strike Team, which included two SWAT officers, was taken to the Foundation Room located on the top floor. Once inside the bar, officers evacuated occupants to a safe location and cleared the area. On the 32nd floor, Security Officer Campos and Engineer Schuck were still pinned down in the hallway. Engineer Schuck heard another round of rapid gunfire and believed it was being fired toward the outside of the building. During a small break in the gunfire, Engineer Schuck and Security Officer Campos ran from their position back towards Center Core. Engineer Schuck was checked for injuries by Engineering Supervisor Alsbury who arrived on the 32nd floor with armed Mandalay Bay security officers. Engineer Schuck stated the gunfire continued for several long rapid volleys with short breaks between. He described the breaks in fire lasting only 5 to 6 seconds before the gunfire would continue. As LVMPD officers arrived on the 32nd floor they proceeded down the 300 Wing. Officers made entry into rooms and searched for occupants. Engineer Schuck redirected the officers to the 100 Wing where the shooting occurred. The sound of gunfire had ceased. The officers transitioned from active shooter protocol to barricaded subject protocol and began slowly and methodically evacuating guests from their hotel rooms. After hearing the update of the shooters location, SWAT Officer O’Donnell and two patrol officers left the Foundation Room and responded to the 32nd floor. Upon exiting the elevator, they encountered several officers already on the floor. The officers moved up the hallway toward the suspect’s room. Engineer Shuck locked out the elevators to keep guests from ascending the tower. Police personnel on the 32nd floor included a sergeant, a SWAT officer, officers assigned to work the Las Vegas Village, and responding officers from various area commands. As occupants were evacuated from their rooms, they were moved to the elevator bank and down the tower. Officers discovered a small infant alone in one of the rooms. As evacuations continued, the nanny for the infant was located in a room across the hall and reunited with the child. The officers stopped evacuations approximately two-thirds of the way up the hall. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 44 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 At the Las Vegas Village, officers encountered people who were hiding in multiple locations and evacuated them. Additional teams of officers arrived and swept the remaining areas of the Las Vegas Village. Once evacuations were completed, the scene was secured. SWAT Officer Hancock, along with Sergeant Bitsko and Officer Newton, went to the 31st floor and ascended the stairs to the 32nd floor. In the stairwell, they met with LVMPD Officers Hendrex and Varsin and Mandalay Bay security personnel. SWAT Officer Hancock attempted to open the first of two doors to enter the hallway but could not due to the “L” bracket. (“L” bracket after the door was manually breached.) SWAT Officer Hancock and Sergeant Bitsko manually breached the inner door leading to the foyer of the 32nd floor. Once in the foyer, the door leading to the 100 Wing hallway was cracked open enough to see the doors to rooms 32-135 and 32-134. Both doors were closed, and a room service cart was located in front of Room 32-134. A white tablecloth was draped over the service cart with various items on top of the tablecloth. Officers observed wires leading from the service cart to Room 32-134 and believed the suspect may have set an IED. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 45 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 (Food service cart from foyer between 100 Wing hallway and stairwell.) A decision was made to enter Room 32-135 utilizing an explosive breach and the other officers in the area were notified. No gunfire had been heard from the suspect’s room for approximately 40 minutes. Officers decided entry was necessary to the room to determine if the suspect was still inside and to stop any further shooting. SWAT Lieutenant Huddler was advised by SWAT Officer Hancock that the door to Room 32-135 was going to be breached using explosives. Officer Newton stepped into the hallway and utilized a ballistic shield to provide cover for SWAT Officer Hancock as he set the breach on the door while Sergeant Bitsko covered the door to Room 32-134. Sergeant Bitsko observed a camera on the food service cart in the hallway. He covered the camera and turned it away from the doorway while SWAT Officer Hancock hung the explosive on the door to Room 32-135. Once the charge was hung on the door, the officers returned to the stairwell. (Bullet holes in door to Room 32-135 prior to breach.) LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 46 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 The approval for the breach was given by SWAT Lieutenant Huddler. The officers were notified over the radio that the door to Room 32-135 was going to be breached and to take cover. Sergeant Bitsko utilized the ballistic shield to keep the door, from the foyer to the hallway, open in case the explosion damaged it. SWAT Officer Hancock observed approximately 12 officers in the stairwell behind him. He designated those who would be make entry into the suspect’s room, the other officers would be a Downed Officer Rescue Team. The entry team consisted of Sergeant Bitsko, Officer Newton, SWAT Officer Hancock, and officers Donaldson, Trzpis, and Walford. Officers Burns and Thiele were assigned to post at the door upon the team’s entry to guard the hallway. The explosive breach was made into Room 32135 and broadcast over the radio. The officers opened the stairwell door far enough to see the doorway to Room 32-135. They observed the breach was successful. Inside the room, they observed a rifle with a scope and bipod on the floor just inside the door. The officers waited for approximately 30 seconds before leaving the stairwell to see if there was any reaction from the suspect. Moving slowly and methodically, Officer Newton entered first into the hallway with the shield followed by the officers from the stairwell. SWAT Officer O’Donnell and Officer Magsaysay joined the Strike Team as they entered the suspect’s room. From behind the shield, the Strike Team entered into Room 32-135. The team split into two teams. Team 1 went left into a bedroom and cleared it. Team 2 went right, encountered the suspect lying on the floor and relayed that information. After clearing the bedroom, Team 1 held at the doorway into the main living area. Team 2 encountered Paddock lying on his back on the floor. A small frame revolver was observed on the ground above Paddock’s head. Apparent blood was located on the revolver, and a pool of blood had formed around Paddock’s head. The officers believed Paddock had a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The large window at Paddock’s feet was broken out, and the curtain was blowing into the room. On the floor next to Paddock’s feet was a small sledge hammer, and Paddock was laying on top of a rifle. The officers also observed numerous rifles, shell casings throughout the living area, and several loaded magazines. Team 2 continued through the living area to the right and encountered a locked door leading to the connecting Room 32-134. Team 1 moved through the living space up to Team 2. SWAT Officer Hancock and Officer Walford attempted to kick the door open but determined it was a solid wood door inside a metal frame. It was decided a second explosive breach was needed to gain entry into the connecting room. SWAT Officer Hancock breached the door. Immediately following the explosive breach SWAT Officer O’Donnell had an unintentional discharge of a three-round burst from his rifle. Officers in the hallway heard the shots fired and broadcast shots had been fired inside the room. Officers flooded into Room 32-134 through the breached adjoining connector door.

A small hallway separated the main area of the room from the bathroom and main door. Another food service cart draped in a white tablecloth was in the hallway. A laptop computer was on the cart and showed a live feed of the hallway. Inside the room, one of the large windows was broken out. Both rooms were searched a second time to ensure a person was not hiding under any furniture. Several suitcases were observed throughout the rooms. Many of the suitcases contained loaded magazines. Officers observed a camera attached to the peephole on the main door of Room 32135. Sergeant Matchko was in the hallway and entered the rooms once they were cleared. Along with officers still in the room, Sergeant Matchko secured the crime scene. Sergeant Matchko was contacted by the command post and directed to locate any information in reference to Paddock. Sergeant Matchko told officers to look throughout the room in an attempt to locate any cell phones or identification for Paddock. These items were located, as well as several room keys and player cards in the name of Paddock and Danley. Pictures of the items were taken and sent to the command post as ordered. The officers rolled Paddock onto his side to check his pockets for identification but found none. After the search for identification was completed, the officers exited and secured the room. Outside, officers cleared the Las Vegas Village, multiple reports of active shooters along Las Vegas Boulevard at various hotel properties were broadcasted. Various officers joined Strike Teams and left to address those reports. As the active shooter reports were cleared and determined to be unfounded, officers assigned to the Las Vegas Village returned to the command post. Officers assigned to the Las Vegas Village remained on post until they were relieved the next morning. Officers maintained the security of the Las Vegas Village and the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay crime scenes as detectives and crime scene analysts responded and began the investigation.

Campos stated he walked down to the 31st floor and came back to the 32nd from the elevator. Campos walked directly to the stairwell door which is next to Room 32-135. Upon opening the hallway door to the stairwell, he saw the secondary door leading to the stairs was secured with a metal bracket. He contacted his security dispatch, inquired about it and was told to contact maintenance. Campos was told by maintenance they knew nothing about it. While Campos was standing at the stairwell doors, he started to hear an industrial drill sound coming from inside Room 32-135.

Daniel Cruz (Valet Attendant) On October 3, at approximately 1959 hours, detectives DeAngelis and Downing conducted an audio recorded interview with Daniel Cruz inside the Mandalay Bay. Also present for the interview was MGM Attorney Ashley Eddy. Below is a summary of the interview. On September 26, Cruz was working in valet. Paddock arrived in a van, and Cruz greeted him. Cruz stated he knows Paddock because he is a regular at the Mandalay Bay and always tells the valet attendants his name is “Stephen with a PH Paddock.” Cruz was not 100% sure if Paddock was by himself. Cruz described Paddock as a friendly guy who usually tipped five dollars. Cruz stated he was working on Friday, September 29, and saw Paddock in the valet area standing next to his vehicle with a short Asian female. Cruz believed Paddock was drunk, and the Asian female was happy and nice. Cruz asked Paddock where he was coming from and he replied, “That concert across the street.” Paddock gave Cruz five dollars and Cruz left. Cruz stated he was 100% sure it was Paddock and he was 100% sure it was Friday because he took Saturday (September 30) off. Cruz could not remember what Paddock or the Asian female were wearing, and nothing “stuck out” from his interaction with Paddock. On October 5, at approximately 1046 hours, detectives DeAngelis and Downing along with MGM Attorney Ashley Eddy interviewed Cruz a second time. Detective DeAngelis explained to Cruz that they wanted to question him again reference the interaction he had with Paddock on Friday, September 29. Detective DeAngelis told Cruz he had some time to think about it, referring to the last interview, and then asked Cruz if he was “100% positive what you told us or has anything changed.” Cruz replied, “No, it’s the same.” Cruz explained he wasn’t sure if the female with Paddock was Danley, but Paddock was with an Asian female. The female was driving the vehicle, and Paddock was the passenger. As Cruz explained how they were in the vehicle when he observed them, an unknown female interrupted the interview with detectives and the interview and recording stopped.24 24 The interview was stopped due to an interruption and resumed shortly after. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 50 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 At approximately 1049 hours, the interview with Cruz continued with the same persons present. Cruz continued to explain how he interacted with Paddock who was possibly drunk and how the Asian female was laughing. Detective DeAngelis asked Cruz if he knew a guy named Phil Torres. Cruz stated he knew him and that Torres was a baggage handler. Detective DeAngelis asked Cruz if he saw Torres on that night (September 29) and Cruz responded, “Um, I don’t even know.” Detective DeAngelis explained to Cruz that he interviewed Torres and Torres told Detective DeAngelis he saw Paddock on the night of September 29. Torres stated Paddock was alone and not drunk. Detective DeAngelis explained they were having a difficult time finding a recorded video surveillance file of the interaction Cruz was describing on video. Detective DeAngelis asked Cruz if it could have been a mistake in identity reference seeing Paddock on September 29. Cruz stated it could have been a mistake in identity, and he was only “50/50, 50%” sure that it was Paddock. Eddy asked Cruz how much the tip was that he received from the “individual.” Cruz stated it was a couple dollars. Detective DeAngelis asked Cruz if he ever referred to Paddock by his name when he spoke with him, and Cruz responded, “No-no.” Detective DeAngelis asked Cruz what the Asian female looked like, and Cruz responded, “Asian.” Cruz then described her as being approximately 4’11” to 5’2” with dark hair. Note: Throughout the investigation detectives were not able to corroborate Cruz’s story. None of the surveillance video showed the interaction between Paddock and Cruz.

Oelke stated they were walking up the 100 Wing of the 31st floor from Center Core when he heard automatic gunfire. He described three breaks in the gunfire from what he believed was an automatic rifle. The tones of gunfire sounded different to him and that one of the volleys sounded like a higher powered rifle than the others. As they arrived at the entrance to the stairwell from the 31st floor, the last volley of gunfire was occurring. The gunfire stopped, and he then heard a single gunshot, which sounded like it came from a handgun. Oelke stated Officers Hendrex and Varsin, along with the security officers eventually entered the stairwell several minutes after the shooting stopped. They held up outside the 32nd floor entrance to ensure that the shooter could not escape down the stairwell. Oelke stayed there with Officers Hendrex and Varsin until SWAT officers arrived and relieved them. He said he never entered the suspect’s room after police officers breached the room and cleared it.

Miguel Sanchez (Security Officer) On October 11, at approximately 1632 hours, Detective Hodson conducted an audio recorded interview with Miguel Sanchez. Also present for the interview was an FBI special agent, and MGM Attorney Ashley Eddy. Below is a summary of the interview. Sanchez has worked for the Mandalay Bay for approximately three years and was working as an armed bike security officer on October 1. He was working the arena dock area at the end of his shift, when he heard over his security radio that there was a shooting at the Route 91 Harvest music festival. He rode toward the festival when he was dispatched to respond to the 32 nd floor where a security guard had been shot with a pellet gun. Sanchez took the elevator up to the 32nd floor with his partner, Security Officer Lacomb. When they exited the elevator, he heard automatic gunfire coming from one of the rooms at the end of the 100 Wing. Security Officer Campos was still down the hallway when Sanchez heard the automatic gunfire. He heard two to three pauses between long volleys of automatic gunfire. During one of the pauses, Campos ran quickly down the hallway toward them. Sanchez stated LVMPD officers arrived approximately five minutes after he and his partner had arrived on the floor. Sanchez was ordered by an LVMPD sergeant in plain clothes to start clearing the rooms on the wings of the 32nd floor. Sanchez never saw the suspect or entered the room at any point. Stephen Schuck (Engineer) On October 6, at approximately 1730 hours, Detective Patton conducted an audio recorded interview with Engineer Stephen Schuck inside the Mandalay Bay. Also present for the interview were two FBI special agents and MGM Attorney Ashley Eddy. Below is a summary of the interview. Schuck was an apprentice engineer at the Mandalay Bay and employed there since May 2017. Schuck was on the 62nd floor fixing a water leak, when he received calls from his dispatcher and supervisor to respond to the 32nd floor. Schuck was told a security officer (Jesus Campos) found the fire door in the 100 Wing screwed shut. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 57 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 Schuck left the 62nd floor and entered the service elevators which are located in the 200 Wing of the hotel. Schuck took the elevator to the 32nd floor. When Schuck exited the elevator he moved his service cart into the hallway, grabbed his tools, and walked down the hallway. Schuck walked up the 100 Wing, and he saw someone (Campos) poke their head out into the hallway. Schuck didn’t think anything of it because guests do that all the time. Schuck made it approximately 50 or 60 yards when he heard automatic gunfire. He originally thought the sound was possibly a jackhammer. When the shooting noise stopped, Campos popped out from the right side of the hallway and told Schuck to get cover. Schuck jumped into the alcove of rooms 32-117 and 32-119. As Schuck faced the door, gunshots came down the hallway, and he felt something hit his back. Schuck believed he was shot, but he later learned a piece of the wall struck him. Schuck tried to open one of the doors with his master key, but the door was dead bolted. Schuck yelled over his radio, “Shots fired! Shots fired! Shannon get the police, do not come down the hallway, he’s shooting down the hallway!” Schuck observed Campos two or three doors ahead of him and noticed Campos was shot in the leg. He didn’t know if Campos could walk or not. After the shooting stopped, he ran down the hallway. He believed more shots were going to be fired down the hallway so he jumped in front of another door. As that happened, Schuck heard another volley of gunshots. He stated the sound of gunshots were so loud he couldn’t tell if they were coming down the hallway or somewhere else. When the shooting stopped, Schuck again ran down the hallway. As he ran, Schuck observed another security guard arriving in the 100 Wing near Center Core. Schuck told the security guard to get out of the hallway. They stayed at Center Core as the gunfire continued for two to three minutes. Schuck was attending to Security Officer Campos’ leg and heard noises coming from the 300 Wing. Schuck looked down the 300 Wing and observed police officers kicking in doors. Schuck yelled at the officers and told them the shooter was in the 100 Wing. The shooting had stopped by the time police officers ran down the 300 Wing and met Schuck at Center Core. Schuck’s supervisor arrived at that time. Schuck’s supervisor gave him a master key and told Schuck to take the elevator down to the beach level and turn off the guest elevators. After Schuck locked out the elevators, his supervisor called him over the radio and advised him to return to the 32nd floor because the police officers needed the master key. Schuck ran through the lobby of the hotel and took the service elevator back to the 32 nd floor where he returned the master key to his supervisor. At this time, guests exited their rooms.

He drove to the Mandalay Bay and parked near the entrance of the Shark Reef. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 61 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 Sergeant Bitsko donned his heavy tactical gear, deployed his rifle, and a ballistic shield. A detective arrived shortly after, and Sergeant Bitsko handed the ballistic shield to him. Sergeant Bitsko, Officer Newton and several plain clothes detectives formulated a Strike Team and entered the Mandalay Bay through the Shark Reef. They cleared the area as they moved from the Shark Reef to the guest elevators. His team exited the elevator on the 28th floor and took the stairwell to the 29th floor.

Also present for the interview was PMSA Attorney Jay Roberts. Below is a summary of the interview. Sergeant Matchko was on his regular scheduled day off; however, he had come into work to assist detectives with the service of a search warrant. While his team prepared to serve the warrant, Sergeant Matchko heard the radio broadcast of an active shooter. He also heard gunfire in the background. Sergeant Matchko left the search warrant scene and proceeded toward the Mandalay Bay. Sergeant Matchko arrived at the Mandalay Bay and entered the hotel, where he asked a security officer to get him up the elevators. He heard several different reports about where the shooting was coming from to include the 28th, 29th, and 32nd floors. As he reached the elevators, officers were already on it preparing to go up. Sergeant Matchko stepped onto the elevator and asked to be taken to where the security officer was shot. The information was conflicting, so he chose to go to the 28th floor, since they would come to it first and it was a possible location for the shooting. As the group of officers exited the elevator, they did not hear gunfire. They cleared the hallways, observed no commotion, and didn’t hear gunfire. Sergeant Matchko gathered more information LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 62 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 and learned other officers were headed to the 32nd floor. He led the team up the stairwell to the 32nd floor. As they exited the stairwell, they made their way down the hallway. He observed other officers near the Center Core and moved to their location. He told officers to evacuate the guest rooms, and move all citizens to safety, as the group moved up the hallway. Sergeant Matchko observed a food service cart near the suite where he was told the shooting was coming from. He was concerned about the cart, believed it looked out of place, and thought that it may be a trap or an IED. As he was focused on the cart, SWAT Officer Hancock arrived. Sergeant Matchko directed SWAT Officer Hancock to go back down a floor and to use a stairwell that would place him near the suite door. Sergeant Matchko was in communication with Sergeant Bitsko (who was also in the stairwell) and SWAT Officer Hancock. Knowing the plan to use an explosive breach, Sergeant Matchko prepared the officers with him, on their roles, and what to do if citizens exited their rooms due to fire alarms, or the sprinkler system activating after the breach. When the explosive breach detonated, several citizens exited their rooms and were immediately escorted by officers to Center Core. Sergeant Matchko observed the group of officers exit the stairwell and make entry into the room. He heard them broadcast the suspect was down. Sergeant Matchko believed the suspect took his own life since he did not hear rounds fired after the officers made entry. Sergeant Matchko and his group maintained their position in the hallway as the team cleared Room 32-135 and breached and cleared Room 32-134. As the room was cleared, several other active shooter calls were broadcast over the radio. Sergeant Matchko divided the teams and told the officers to go handle more calls. He received a phone call from Captain Tomaino who ordered him to look in the room for identification of the suspect or suspects. Photographs were taken using a cell phone camera and sent to the command post. With help from Detective Trzpis, they rolled the suspect onto his side, which caused blood to flow from his mouth and down the side of his face. His pockets were checked for photo identification, and he was rolled back to his original position. Officers then exited the room and held it for investigators.

Detectives Clarkson and Brosnahan, along with several other officers, moved from the patrol vehicles to behind a block wall where several civilians were found hiding. The civilians were pushed closer to the wall as officers shielded them with their bodies. While behind the wall, Detective Clarkson was told he was bleeding. Detective Brosnahan applied direct pressure to the wound until another officer arrived with a medical kit. After having his neck bandaged, Detectives Clarkson and Brosnahan escorted civilians away from the street and through the venue. Detectives Clarkson and Brosnahan made their way to the medical tent and found several people who were critically injured. Ambulances couldn’t get to the scene, so Detective Brosnahan left to retrieve Detective Clarkson’s police vehicle.

SWAT Officer Hancock placed another charge on the door while SWAT O’Donnell and Officer Magsaysay stacked up behind him. As the charge was detonated, Officer Magsaysay heard three shots from SWAT Officer O’Donnell. He believed SWAT Officer O’Donnell was firing at a suspect. (The shots Officer Magsaysay heard was the unintential discharge by SWAT Officer O’Donnell.) As they moved into the room, Officer Magsaysay cleared the room. He observed more rifles and a laptop with wires that ran to a camera on the room service cart in the hallway. There was no other suspect located after they cleared both suites. After the room was cleared, he assisted in evacuating guests from other rooms on the 32nd floor. Officer David Newton On October 3, at approximately 1620 hours, Detective Keith conducted an audio recorded interview with Officer Newton at LVMPD Headquarters. Also present for the interview was LVPPA Representative Yant. Below is a summary of the interview. On October 1, Officer Newton was informed by Sergeant Bitsko of an active shooter on the CCAC channel. Officer Newton switched his radio to CCAC and heard there was a shooter at the Mandalay Bay. He and Sergeant Bitsko made a decision to park and enter the Mandalay Bay near the Shark Reef. When they arrived, Sergeant Bitsko requested additional officers to join them and form an active shooter team. Once the other officers arrived, they entered the casino. They told security to evacuate citizens. While working their way through the casino, they heard a radio update that the shooter was possibly on the 29th floor. They took elevator to 29th floor and began clearing hallways. They continued to move up, floor by floor, to the 31st floor where they met with SWAT Officer Hancock at the stairwell leading to suspect’s room on 32nd floor. They breached the locked interior stairwell door and devised a plan to breach the door of suspect’s suite with an explosive that SWAT Officer Hancock had with him. Officer Newton stated he had the ballistic shield and entered the hallway providing cover as SWAT Officer Hancock applied the explosive charge. Once the door was breached, he made entry to the suite where he observed a rifle with a bipod on the floor and the suspect who appeared to have shot himself. They cleared the suite and then LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 70 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 encountered a locked door to the connecting room. SWAT Officer Hancock used another explosive charge to breach the door to the connecting room. After the connecting room was cleared, Officer Newton exited the room. SWAT Officer Sean O'Donnell On October 3, at approximately 1545 hours, Detective Jex conducted an audio recorded interview with SWAT Officer O'Donnell at LVMPD Headquarters. Also present for the interview was Detective Quinteros. Below is a summary of the interview. Officer O'Donnell was assigned to SWAT and was on his regular day off when he received a text from a friend in K9. The text advised of an active shooter at the Mandalay Bay, and due to the source of the information, SWAT Officer O'Donnell immediately went to his SWAT vehicle which was at his residence, turned on his radio, and began to put on his work uniform and gear. SWAT Officer O'Donnell realized quickly the information on the shooting was accurate and began to head toward the incident. SWAT Officer O'Donnell responded to the Mandalay Bay where he joined a patrol officer and another SWAT member as they made entry into the property. The information broadcast over the radio caused him to believe the shooting was on the 32 nd floor; however, there were reports of other locations as well. The decision was made to go to the top floor and work their way down to look for any threats. The group responded to the Foundation Room, which is located on the top floor of the hotel. They found patrons who did not seem frightened or aware of any incident occurring. When SWAT Officer O'Donnell observed this and heard more information coming in about the 32nd floor, he grabbed a security officer, one patrol officer, and proceeded to the 32nd floor using a service elevator. As they exited the service elevator, he noticed uniformed officers who were focused down one of the hallways. The officers briefed SWAT Officer O'Donnell about a security officer who had been shot down the hallway and about the location they believed the threat was coming from. SWAT Officer O'Donnell could not hear any gunfire. SWAT Officer O'Donnell believed they should treat the situation as a barricade unless circumstances changed and shooting resumed. SWAT Officer O'Donnell held his position and was informed of SWAT Officer Hancock's location. He learned of SWAT Officer Hancock's plan to breach the door to the suite and make entry. He decided when SWAT Officer Hancock moved into the room, he would quickly move up the hallway and join him. When SWAT Officer Hancock breached the doors to Room 32-135, SWAT Officer O'Donnell quickly moved up the hallway and joined the team. As they entered the room, SWAT Officers O'Donnell and Hancock moved in different directions. He could see weapons on the floor and announced that information to the group. Once his area was cleared, he moved into the main room where he observed a male lying on the floor with what he believed to be a gunshot wound to the head. He stated there was a small handgun near the males head. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 71 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 There was a door that led to a connecting room, which the team focused their attention on. SWAT Officer Hancock set an explosive breach to make entry into the second room. The team again stacked and prepared to make entry. As the breach occurred and the team began to move, SWAT Officer O'Donnell felt he should change the rate of fire on his rifle to "select fire" which puts the gun into a three-round burst mode. As he made the switch, which takes hand manipulation, SWAT Officer O'Donnell's hand slipped which caused the weapon to fire a threeround burst into the wall. The team continued to move and went into the next room. Once the rooms were cleared, the officers went back and located a wallet with identification that appeared to belong to the deceased person inside the room. The information of the person's identity was relayed to the command post as well as the information of the rounds that had been unintentionally fired. Officer Michael Thiele On October 3, at approximately 1639 hours, Detective Keith conducted an audio recorded interview with Officer Thiele at LVMPD Headquarters. Also present for the interview was LVPPA Representative Grammas. Below is a summary of the interview. Officer Thiele was working in EAC with Officer Bunitsky. Both officers were on a domestic violence call when they heard an active shooter call was occurring in CCAC. Officer Thiele heard an officer had been shot and believed the officer was his brother (Officer Thiele would later learn his brother was not one of the officers who was shot). Both Officer Thiele and Bunitsky responded to the area of Russell Road and Las Vegas Boulevard. Officers Thiele and Bunitsky were teamed up with four other officers and a sergeant. The team of officers made their way through the Mandalay Bay and subsequently teamed up with SWAT Officer Levi Hancock. The team responded to the 32nd floor but quickly turned around, went to the 31st floor, and went up a stairwell that was adjacent to the suspect’s room (Room 32-135). SWAT Officer Hancock devised a plan to breach the suspect’s room. SWAT Officer Hancock designated four officers to enter the room with him and three officers (one of which was Officer Thiele) to stay and watch the door. After the breach occurred, Officer Thiele exited the stairwell and observed a cart in the hallway with cameras on it. As they stood guard outside of the suspect’s room, Officer Thiele heard a second breach occur inside the suspect’s room. After the breach, Officer Thiele entered the room and made it down a small hallway in the living room area. As he entered the small hallway, Officer Thiele heard the other officers inside the room state they were “Code 4”; therefore, Officer Thiele did not feel the need to go any further into the room. After the room was cleared, officers Thiele and Bunitsky exited the room and responded to the command post where they were both assigned other duties. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 72 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 Officer Michael Tolbert On October 3, at approximately 1259 hours, Detective Penny conducted an audio recorded interview with Officer Tolbert at LVMPD Headquarters. Below is a summary of the interview. Officer Tolbert was operating as a uniformed patrol officer and was in the area of Warm Springs Road and Las Vegas Boulevard when he heard the active shooter call over the radio. He responded to the Mandalay Bay, and parked his vehicle in front on the east side of the street. Officer Tolbert deployed with his shotgun when he heard automatic gunfire and believed the shooting was coming from the Mandalay Bay. He moved to the entrance of the Mandalay Bay when he was joined by other officers and entered the hotel. The group made contact with security who stated they had possibly two shooters on the 29 th and 32nd floors. They could not determine if there was still gunfire and made the decision to take the elevator to the 28th floor and then use the stairwell to access the 29 th floor. While they cleared the 29th floor, they realized there was no shooting on that floor and proceeded to the 32 nd floor. When he reached the 32nd floor, there were several officers set up on a hallway. They were briefed that the shooting was coming from the end of the hallway, a security officer had been shot and the stairwell next to the suite was barricaded. Officer Tolbert joined a group of officers led by a SWAT officer down to the 31st floor, where they made their way back up a stairwell that led them next to the doors of the suite. The SWAT officer breached one of the stairwell doors that was secured by an "L" bracket and then placed an explosive breaching charge on the suite. With the amount of officers in the stairwell, the decision was made to separate into two groups. One group would make entry into the room and the rest would maintain their position and be used for evacuation and downed officers. Officer Tolbert stayed with the second group as the first group made entry into the room. Once entry was made into the room, he heard them announce that a suspect was down. As the team that entered the room stated it was clear, the group from the hallway began to make their way toward the suite. Officer Tolbert moved into the foyer of the suspect's room, after it had been cleared. As Officer Tolbert was in the foyer, the decision was made to finish clearing the rooms on the 32 nd floor. There was information coming in of other possible active shooters at other hotels, so a group of officers including Officer Tolbert left to re-deploy to other locations. Officer Tolbert was stopped by a captain when he arrived at the valet area of the Mandalay Bay to help establish a command post. Investigative Responsibilities Due to the magnitude of the investigation, federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies conducted various aspects of the investigation. Information pertaining to the investigation was gathered by the FBI, Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), Nevada Gaming Control Board, Henderson Police Department, and various bureaus/sections within the LVMPD. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 73 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 The ATF and FBI filed their respective legal processes in federal court.

The vehicle was a 2017 Chrysler Pacifica bearing Nevada plate 79D401, had been backed into space 317 and was locked. The key for the vehicle was obtained from valet. A search warrant was obtained and at 0325 hours, detectives with the LVMPD All-Hazard Regional Multi-Agency Operations and Response Section (ARMOR) broke a window to the vehicle to allow an explosive detection dog access to the scent. A U.S. Marshall explosive detection K9 moved around the vehicle and gave an alert to the presence of explosive precursors. Detectives secured the area on the belief there were explosive precursors within the vehicle. ARMOR detectives requested LVMPD dispatch to notify the Las Vegas Fire and Rescue Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive Task Force (CBRNE) to respond. Las Vegas Fire Rescue responded with their CBRNE vehicle along with FBI bomb technicians. Located inside the vehicle were five bags which were X-rayed and removed by the FBI. Upon rendering the vehicle safe, the vehicle and all items located inside were photographed. All items removed from the vehicle were placed back inside, and the vehicle was sealed. The vehicle was subsequently towed from the Mandalay Bay Hotel to a secure FBI facility for a thorough search and evidence collection. Evidence collected from inside Paddock's vehicle included loaded rifle magazines for both AR15 and AR-10 style rifles. Also collected were 20 two pound containers of exploding targets, 10 one pound containers of exploding targets and 20 two pound bags of explosive precursors.

Each card is automated to open the room door associated to that guest. As a result, each time a card is used to gain access to a guest room, the information is electronically stored. Lock interrogations were requested on both rooms 32-135 and 32-134. On October 1, the door and lock to Room 32-135 was manipulated several times. The door was opened and closed and the dead bolt was thrown and released several times. At 2320 hours, the door to Room 32-135 showed “opened from the inside.” This is the time the door was breached by officers. The only key card used to open the door from the outside was issued to Paddock. On October 1, the door and lock to Room 32-134 was manipulated several times. The door was opened and closed, and the dead bolt was thrown and released several times. The only key card used to open the door from the outside was issued to Paddock. Prior to October 1, key cards issued to other guests were used in an attempt to make access into rooms 32-135 and 32-134 but access was denied.33 DNA Several items of evidentiary value were collected for DNA analysis from rooms 32-135 and 32134 of the Mandalay Bay.

The following are summaries of the interviews conducted by investigators with various agencies. Marilou Danley Marilou Danley was interviewed on several occasions after the incident. Present during the interviews were various investigators with the LVMPD and FBI along with Danley’s daughter and lawyer. The following is a summary of the information provided and learned during those interviews. Danley was born in the Philippines and later moved to Australia and became a citizen. Danley moved to the United States in the late 1980s. She married and lived in Tennessee and Arkansas until separating from her husband. Danley then moved to Reno and began working as a highlimit casino host. While in Reno, Danley met Stephen Paddock and had a professional relationship. Over the course of a couple years, their relationship developed into a romantic one. Paddock was not living in Reno at the time but would visit often and stay at the casino. According to Danley, Paddock played video poker and was known as a high roller. As their relationship developed, Paddock bought a condominium in Reno because he was tired of staying in the hotel. In 2013, Danley moved into the condominium, and Paddock continued to travel between Mesquite, Texas, and Reno. Paddock told Danley his family owned an apartment complex in Mesquite. In 2014, Paddock purchased a single-family residence in the Reno area and sold the condominium. Paddock and Danley moved into the house, and it became their primary residence. In January of 2015, Paddock purchased a single-family residence in Mesquite. Paddock and Danley would travel between the two residences often. All real estate transactions were completed in Paddock’s name only. After acquiring the Mesquite residence, Paddock and Danley would routinely travel to Las Vegas and stay at various casinos while gambling. Most of the trips were for a few days at a time. They had hosts at several casinos and would book rooms, show tickets, and concerts through the casino hosts. Paddock would often request a room with a nice view. Reservations were placed with both names so that both could charge incidentals to the rooms. Paddock and Danley took multiple trips together, and Paddock asked Danley to quit working so they could travel more. Danley told him she could not because she had to work. Paddock convinced Danley to quit working in 2015 and agreed to give her a set amount of money every month. Paddock and Danley travelled, taking many cruises and international trips. Destinations included the Mediterranean, Bahamas, Dubai, and the Orient. Danley described her relationship with Paddock as very romantic in the beginning; however, she noticed a gradual decline in affection. According to him, it was due to his declining health. Danley LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 112 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 stated over the course of their relationship, hugging and kissing stopped. Danley confronted Paddock about the lack of affection, and he told her he was unable to commit to more affection. Paddock would show concern and compassion despite the lack of affection. Danley stated Paddock was no longer able to have an intimate relationship because he was unable to perform. Danley told investigators Paddock was physiologically able to have sex, but the physical act would exhaust him. Danley stated he would often sleep for long periods after physical exertion. Danley described Paddock as a mild-mannered person and never violent. He rarely became visibly upset and did not yell or scream when angered. If he was upset about something, Danley stated Paddock would become quiet. He seldom drank alcohol, and she never observed him consume any type of illegal narcotic. Paddock would often complain of being sick and told Danley that doctors couldn’t cure him. He stated doctors told him he had a chemical imbalance. Paddock would get very bad headaches from chemical smells and often asked to change rooms in hotels because of the smell in the room. Paddock would not shake hands with people and often wore cotton gloves. Paddock told her in the beginning of their relationship that she would have to stop wearing lipstick and perfumes because he was allergic to them. According to Danley, Paddock was not a religious person. He would often say things like, “Your God doesn’t love me,” or “Your God doesn’t love us.” Danley described herself as a Catholic and would often make the sign of the cross. If something negative would happen after making the sign of the cross, Paddock would blame the negative action on Danley making the sign. Although not religious, Paddock did not have a problem with Danley taking part in religious practices. According to Danley, Paddock described himself as an atheist. Danley stated Paddock didn’t talk in length about politics and did not belong to any political organizations. Paddock did express a dislike for the Obama administration and was happy when President Trump was elected. Paddock told her he believed President Trump would do something to stop illegal immigration. Paddock did not comment on the topic of gun control and did not display any racial bias. In 2016, Paddock and Danley traveled to their residence in Reno. When they returned to Mesquite, Paddock brought back a large gun safe. The safe was placed in the garage of the Mesquite residence, and Danley observed a pistol in the safe when she placed jewelry in it. Danley observed an increase in guns and gun-related purchases after Paddock retrieved the safe. In August 2017, Paddock and Danley drove to the residence in Reno. On their return to Mesquite, Paddock brought back a large quantity of ammunition. Danley assisted Paddock by putting loaded magazines into suitcases and duffle bags. According to Danley, each duffle bag contained 25 loaded magazines. Danley asked Paddock why he had so much ammunition and Paddock told her it was because one gun could use a lot of ammunition. Paddock also said he began buying ammunition in bulk because it was cheaper. LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 113 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 Danley believed Paddock’s new found interest in guns was merely a hobby. Packages began arriving at the residence frequently, and Paddock would open the packages in the garage. Paddock often went to gun stores and gun shows. Danley accompanied Paddock on a few trips to gun stores but did not pay attention to the transactions. Danley also accompanied Paddock to an unofficial gun range located near the waste management landfill near Mesquite. Danley helped set up targets at long distances for Paddock to shoot with the rifles. After target shooting with the various rifles, Paddock would clean them in the garage.

According to Danley, the money was to be used to purchase a home in the Philippines. Danley was concerned Paddock may be attempting to set her up with a home and break up with her. Danley stated most of her communication with Paddock during the trip was by email or text message. They did have at least one voice call during the trip. Paddock told Danley the calls were expensive, and that’s why he set up international text messaging for the trip. During text or email conversations, Paddock would become evasive or change the subject if Danley asked where he was at but did tell her he was up $70,000. Around September 27, 2017, she received an email from Paddock asking her if she wanted to stay longer, and she replied she was ready to come home. Danley learned of the attack while she was in Manila. She was on her way to dinner when her sister received a phone call telling them to come back to the house.

According to Eric, Paddock had won millions of dollars gambling and was well known in Las Vegas casinos. Paddock played mostly at the Wynn for the last few months. Because Paddock was so successful, casinos would no longer provide him free compensations. Eric believed Paddock may have conducted the attack because he had done everything in the world he wanted to do and was bored with everything. If so, Paddock would have planned the attack to kill a large amount of people because he would want to be known as having the largest casualty count. Paddock always wanted to be the best and known to everyone. Eric told investigators he and Paddock were smarter than the majority of other people. Eric told investigators he was in Las Vegas to help and show “how dumb you motherfuckers are,” referring to law enforcement.

Eric was upset with Paddock until he learned Paddock had removed the hard drives of the computers found in the hotel room.

LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 124 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 V. CONCLUSION On October 1, 2017, Stephen Paddock committed the largest mass casualty shooting in this country’s history. Fifty-Eight people were killed, approximately 887 people sustained documented injuries. Of those 869 people, 413 sustained a gunshot wound or shrapnel-type injury. While en route to the scene, many investigators heard multiple, chaotic emergency-only radio calls coming out in reference to active shooters at different properties along the Las Vegas Strip, fires breaking out at certain properties, actual shooters that were inside the Las Vegas Village venue at the time of the shooting. Early reporting from national news outlets reported that ISIS was claiming responsibility for the shooting. The investigation revealed none of this information was accurate. Paddock began stockpiling weapons approximately one year prior to the shooting. His behavior began to change according to Danley. Their relationship became very business-like and she became almost subservient to him. He began purchasing semi-automatic rifles and hundreds of gun-related items almost daily. Paddock researched various open-air venues such as Fenway Park, La Jolla Beach, and other open-air concert venues. His Internet searches also included “Biggest open air concert venues in USA”, “How crowded does Santa Monica Beach get”, and many others. During a stay at the Mandalay Bay in September of 2017, Danley described Paddock’s behavior strange as they were staying in Room 60-235, and she observed him looking out the windows which also overlooked the Las Vegas Village venue. She mentioned how he would move around the room looking at the venue from different angles and positions. In late August or September of 2017, Paddock told Danley that she should go to the Philippines and visit her family. Danley traveled to the Philippines, departing on September 15, and scheduled to return on October 4. Paddock completed three wire transfers during this time totaling $150,000. Each wire transfer was for $50,000. On October 1, between 2205 and 2216 hours, Paddock fired approximately 1,057 rounds into the crowd at the Las Vegas Village venue down the 100 Wing hallway of the 32 nd floor and at fuel tanks connected to McCarran International Airport, all from inside rooms 32-135 and 32-134 of the Mandalay Bay. At approximately 2218 hours, heat detection indicators from inside Room 32-135 indicated there was no other movement from inside the room, leading investigators to believe Paddock was alone and at that point already dead. At approximately 2257 hours, a Strike Team led by Sergeant Joshua Bitsko and SWAT Officer Levi Hancock, breached the interior stairwell door that Paddock had secured with an “L” bracket. At approximately 2320 hours, that same Strike Team breached their way into Room 32-135 to LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 125 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 discover Paddock, already dead on the floor with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, and the revolver Paddock used lying a foot away on the floor. In the days, weeks and months that followed, there was an exhaustive investigation completed by the LVMPD and FBI into Paddock’s life, which resulted in the below listed findings. INVESTIGATIVE FINDINGS: 1) Paddock acted alone. Despite early reports of multiple shooters in different locations, no evidence exists to substantiate any of those reports. Thousands of hours of digital media were reviewed, and after all the interviews were conducted, no evidence exists to indicate Paddock conspired with or acted in collusion with anyone else. This includes video surveillance, recovered DNA and analysis of cellular phones, and computers belonging to Paddock. 2) No suicide note or manifesto was found. Of all the evidence collected from rooms 32135 and 32-134, there was no note or manifesto stating Paddock’s intentions. The only handwritten documentation found in either room was the small note indicating measurements and distances related to the use of rifles. 3) There was no evidence of radicalization or ideology to support any theory that Paddock supported or followed any hate group or any domestic or foreign terrorist organization. Despite numerous interviews with Paddock’s family, acquaintances and gambling contacts, investigators could not link Paddock to any specific ideology. 4) Paddock committed no crimes leading up to the October 1 mass shooting. All the weapons and ammunition he purchased, were purchased legally. This includes all the purchases Paddock made at gun stores as well as online purchases. Paddock did not commit a crime until he fired the first round into the crowd at the Las Vegas Village. 5) In reference to the 2,000 investigated leads, 22,000 hours of video, 252,000 images obtained and approximately 1,000 served legal processes, nothing was found to indicate motive on the part of Paddock or that he acted with anyone else. 6) Security Officer Campos was not shot with a BB gun but rather sustained a gunshot wound from one of the rounds fired by Paddock down the hallway of the 100 Wing on the 32nd floor. Security Officer Campos did in fact have a pre-planned vacation to Mexico to go visit his father, and Security Officer Campos asked law enforcement for permission to make this trip. 7) One aspect of the investigation focused on Paddock’s financials. Although Paddock’s liquid wealth declined prior to 1 October, the investigation proved Paddock was selffunded through his gambling and past real estate transactions. He was indebted to no one and paid all his gambling debts off prior to the shooting. Although investigators were told early on in the investigation Paddock had a bank account frozen for high dollar LVMPD Internal Oversight & Constitutional Policing Bureau Force Investigation Team Page 126 of 187 LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT Criminal Investigative Report of the 1 October Mass Casualty Shooting CONTINUATION Event: 171001-3519 transfers, it was determined this information was false for the two years preceding the incident. INDICATORS OF INTENT: As stated earlier in this report, investigators were unable to uncover or discover what Paddock’s motive may have been. While motive may have eluded investigators, there were certain indicators of intent shown by Paddock which lead up to the mass shooting. 1) Paddock had a reservation for a hotel during the Lollapalooza music festival held at Grant Park in Chicago, Illinois during the month of August. Like the Route 91 Harvest music festival, the Lollapalooza festival was held in an open-air venue. Paddock specifically requested a room overlooking the venue when he made the reservation. That reservation was cancelled two days prior to the check-in date. 2) Paddock made lodging reservations during the Life Is Beautiful music festival held in downtown Las Vegas. The festival was also an open-air music venue attended by thousands of people. Paddock requested units overlooking the venue. Paddock reserved three different units during the period and all faced the venue. Paddock was observed in video surveillance transporting several suitcases from his vehicle to the units he reserved. Paddock was alone for the trip and was never accompanied by anyone for more than a casual conversation. Investigators have been unable to determine if Paddock intended an attack during this festival or if he used it as a means to plan a future attack. 3) Paddock conducted several internet searches while planning his actions. Search terms included open-air concert venues, Las Vegas SWAT tactics, weapons, and explosives. Paddock also searched for various gun stores. 4) Paddock purchased over 55 firearms, which were mostly rifles in various calibers, from October 2016 to September 2017. He bought over 100 firearm-related items through various retailers during that period. 5) During a stay in early September 2017, Paddock requested specific rooms that overlooked the Las Vegas Village. According to Danley, Paddock spent time looking at the Las Vegas Village venue from different angles and windows while inside the room.
