Danley has been located. The investigation is ongoing.

The gunman’s brother, Eric Paddock, spoke with the FBI at his home in central Florida, and told CNN that the last time he talked to his brother was in the wake of hurricane Irma.

Paddock was stunned that his brother got hold of such a weapon since he did not have any military background.

“He’s not an avid gun guy at all. The fact that he had those kind of weapons is just – where the hell did he get automatic weapons?” Paddock told CBS, adding that he was afraid for Danley’s life as well.
