A total of 47 guns were found in the suspected Las Vegas shooter’s hotel room and two homes, police said Tuesday night at a press conference. Multiple loaded high-capacity magazines were found in the hotel room, law enforcement sources said earlier on Monday. Among the guns and ammunition police found the in the room being used by Paddock were some high-powered rifles considered capable of

penetrating police armor. There were also some handguns in the room. Police said the guns were purchased in Nevada, California, Utah and Texas. The additional ammunition indicates that the shooting, which left 58 people dead and injured over 500, could have been worse, had police not intervened when they did. Police believe that Paddock took his own life. READ MORE
