Las Vegas Shooting: America Mourns 59 Victims Due to Deadly Shootings (Photos)

The United States of America has been thrown into a state of mourning after Stephen Paddock rained automatic gunfire down on concert-goers from his 32nd floor hotel room on the Las Vegas Strip on Sunday, October 1, 2017.

The shooting has already been declared to be the worst in the country's history with a fatality rate that surpasses the bloody Orlando mass shooting that took place only last year.

The 64-year-old former accountant turned terrorist used the vantage point of his Mandalay Bayhotel room to wreak mass havoc on the 22,000-strong crowd at the country music concert.

More than 500 hundred people were also injured in the tragedy as Paddock killed himself before law enforcement could apprehend him in a room full of assault weapons.

Since the tragedy on Sunday, messages of support have poured in from all over the world as memorials and vigils have sprung up all over the country as it gets to grips with yet another senseless tragedy.
