Gunman Stephen Paddock fired more than 1,100 rounds of ammunition during his attack on a Las Vegas country music festival last month, authorities said. Included in this total is about 200 rounds that Paddock fired from his Mandalay Bay hotel room into the hallway, injuring hotel security guard Jesus Campos, Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo told the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Wednesday. He spent decades amassing a vast weapons arsenal, although more than 30 of his firearms were purchased in the 12 months preceding the shooting. Authorities also found about 4,000 rounds of unused ammunition in the hotel room, Lombardo said. “I’m frustrated,” Lombardo said, adding that the city’s police department is still working with the FBI to process the ballistics evidence.
