There were several people from Western Pennsylvania caught up in the chaos when a gunman opened fire late Sunday night during a country musical festival along the Las Vegas Strip.
Marissa Jones of Carnegie told our news partners at WPXI-TV that she and a friend from McKees Rocks were returning to their hotel- the MGM Grand- when the gunfire erupted. The two hid under a golf cart.
Brandon Foley, of Beechview, was also staying at the MGM Grand and said he could see the concert from his room. He described the scene as a “mass stampede.”
Ryan Kubiak, of Green Tree, was preparing to leave the MGM Grand to catch his flight back to Pittsburgh when a woman screamed, “There’s a shooter!”
