Multiple people have been shot after gunfire erupted at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. The Route 91 Harvest Festival outdoor country music concert was underway at the time sending concert goers scrambling. Jason Aldean was on stage at the time when rapid fire automatic shots could be heard. Witnesses say the shooter was firing from above. There is a massive response from police and ambulance rescue. The Las Vegas strip area is on lock down. The venue, Las Vegas Village, is across the street from Mandalay Bay.

The incident happened at 10:08pm local time. The shooter has been identified as a local resident but his name will not be released at this time. Police are searching for a person of interest identified as Marilou Danley. UPDATE: Shooter has been identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock. Danley is no longer a person of interest.

There have been multiple casualties. University Medical Center says 2 people have died, 26 are injured, and 12 are critical. Other hospitals in Las Vegas have not reported on casualties at their locations. Police have said that there are at least 50+ dead and 200+ injured. Ambulances are continuing to take people out of the area. The Las Vegas police have confirmed that one suspect is down and they do not believe there are any other shooters. This is still an active situation.

UPDATE: 58 have died and 515 were injured.
