Trying To Locate A Loved One In Vegas? Call These Numbers

Following the horrific, overnight shooting in Las Vegas, the Red Cross has opened a hotline for those trying to locate family members who are in the area and unable to be reached. 

If your loved one attended the Route 91 Harvest music festival and/or is in Las Vegas and is uncontactable, you may call 1-866-535-5654 for assistance.

Police have also created a 'family retreat area' for those responding to the incident in person. 

"If you are unable to call or you do not want to wait for a call and you want to respond in person, we have set up an area so we can help you locate your loved ones,” Las Vegas police officers said, according to a report by Express.

That retreat area has been erected at the police’s headquarters at 400 South Martin Luther King Boulevard in Las Vegas.

Victims of the shooting are being treated at Las Vegas’ University Medical Centre.

The hospital’s emergency department can be reached on 702-383-2211.

Please only call the hospital if you have a genuine concern about a loved one who you think might have been injured in the attack.

The Las Vegas police department is also issuing updates on its Twitter account.

In wake of the shooting, flights in and out of McCarran International Airport have been impacted. Those who have scheduled flights are advised to follow their flight’s status with their airline and expect delays.

Authorities have confirmed at least 50 people dead and more than 200 were injured during a shooting outside the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. 

The suspected gunman, 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, is dead. Officials have also named 62-year-old Marilou Danley as Paddock's companion. Danley is being called a person of interest.
