At least 58 people were killed and 515 injured (at the time of this post) last night in Vegas at the Route 91 Country Music Festival. A gunman opened fire from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.
The cell phone footage and audio is heartbreaking. Jason Aldean was on stage when the gunfire began. He posted on Instagram hours after the incident:
Since then, #PrayForVegas has been trending…

I’m still trying to wrap my head over the incident and the unnecessary tragedy. I had friends there last night, some who are waiting for loved ones to be released from the hospital this morning.
All I know is- hug the ones you love!!!!
