Why did SWAT clear the Tropicana on the night of the mass shooting?

LAS VEGAS (INTELLIHUB) — A Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team was captured on video late Sunday night clearing the Tropicana casino floor just moments after the Route 91 music festival massacre.

It appeared to be a six-man team accompanied by three other individuals, two of which were dressed in plain clothes.

The two dressed in plain clothes branched away from the element at one point in the video.

Civilians on the casino floor were told to hold their hands high in the air as the well-armed team passed.
