Hundreds of survivors and witnesses to the Las Vegas mass shooting broke into applause when police officers entered the Tropicana resort on the Strip.
A police sergeant estimated that around 1,500 people were sheltered in the building’s halls at the time, around 2 a.m. on Oct. 2, 2017. Many of them were draped in white blankets.
The moment was captured on a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Officer’s body camera.
Seventeen minutes later, the officer picked up a bullhorn and thanked the crowd for their response.
“I’m terribly sorry about tonight,” he said. “We have no control over the actions of evil people, but we’re here now…. Thank you so much for coming to our city. We’re sorry this happened. We hope you can come back some day and enjoy a great weekend.”
Several people shouted “thank you” as the crowd applauded again.
