Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock a retired multimillionaire
Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock lived in a Nevada retirement community and was a multimillionaire real estate investor with no known criminal history. He traveled to Las Vegas to gamble high stakes while 59 people were killed and about 530 injured at the Route 91 Harvest Festival. The Islamic State claimed responsibility but investigators found no terrorism link. Paddock died by suicide in his Mandalay Bay hotel room as authorities closed in, leaving bewildered family and questions about motive.
