"The hunt for a second or third gunman in the Mandalay Bay Massacre in Las Vegas appears to be over, at least as far as the FBI is concerned. Whether premature or not.
FBI officials told True Pundit late Thursday the focus of the case now is zoned in solely on Stephen Paddock as the lone gunman, per a directive from FBI headquarters in Washington D.C.
The directive came as a shock, as FBI insiders said they were pursuing leads that while Paddock was sniping innocent victims from his 32nd-floor perch at Mandalay Bay, another gunman wielding an AR-15 5.56 caliber weapon was closer to the ground shooting from another angle.

If you look at the 2:05 mark in the video you can see one of the cops or even possibly him walk by wearing the same yellow vest. This is honestly the first I've heard of shots reported at Gate 7. I'm looking into it more now to see what else if anything comes up in relation to that. I'm still open the possibility of the multiple shooters theory for sure. But I just find it a lot less likely there was a shooter on ground level within the event. I feel like there would be a lot more eyewitnesses who would of reported seeing someone on ground level if that was truly the case.

Well what leads me to believe it's a cop is the bright yellow vest he has on. All the officers that were on duty at that event were wearing that same bright yellow vest as well. As far as why he decided to switch on his flashlight while being shot at is anyone's guess, but my first thought would be it's just instinct from his training kicking in.
