Coroner: Gunfire killed all 58 victims in Las Vegas shooting

LAS VEGAS — All 58 victims of the Las Vegas mass shooting died of gunshot wounds, a coroner Thursday, revealing that no one was killed trying to escape from an outdoor concert that turned into a massacre.

The deaths in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history were all ruled homicides, Clark County Coroner John Fudenberg told The Associated Press.

The only wound to the shooter, Stephen Craig Paddock, 64, was a self-inflicted gunshot to the mouth, Fudenberg said. His death was ruled a suicide.

Twenty-one people were shot in the head, 36 died with chest and back wounds and one died of a gunshot to the leg, according to a chart the coroner released. Four victims had multiple gunshot wounds.

Authorities have said more than 500 people were injured when Paddock, a high-stakes gambler, unleashed gunfire from an upper floor of a high-rise casino hotel onto an outdoor country music festival below.
