The Passage: A Novel (Book One of The Passage Trilogy)

Justin Cronin

page 600 of 881 (Amazon Kindle Version)

Chapter 45

The drove in from the south, into the fading day, into a vision of towering ruins.

Peter was at the wheel of the first Humvee, Alicia up top, scanning the terrain with the binoculars; Caleb sat beside him in the passenger seat with the map over his lap. The highway had all but disappeared, its course vanished under waves of cracked, pale earth.

"Caleb, where the hell are we?"

Caleb was twisting the map this way and that. He arched his neck and shouted up to Alicia. "Do you see the 215?"

"What's the 215?"

"Another highway, like this one! We should be crossing it!"

"I didn't know we were even *on* a highway!"

Peter brought the vehicle to a halt and picked up the radio from the floor. "Sara, what's you fuel gauge say?"

A crackle of static, and then Sara's voice came through: "A quarter tank. Maybe a little more."

"Let me talk to Hollis."

He watched in the rearview as Hollis, his injured arm wrapped in a sling, scrambled down from the gun post and took the radio from Sara. "I think we may have lost the road," Peter told him. "We both need fuel, too."

"Is there an airport anywhere?"

Peter took the map from Caleb to examine it. "Yes. If we're still following Highway 15, it should be ahead of us, to the east." He shouted up to Alicia: "Do you see anything that looks like an airport?"

"How the hell should I know what an airport looks like?"

Through the radio, Hollis said, "Tell her to look for fuel tanks. Big ones."

"Lish! Do you see any fuel tanks?"

Alicia dropped down into the cabin. Her face was coated with dust. She rinsed her mouth from her canteen and spat out the window. "Dead ahead, about five clicks."

"You're sure?"

She nodded. "There's a bridge up ahead. I'm thinking that could be the overpass at Highway 215. If I'm right, the airport is just on the other side."

Peter picked up the radio again. "Lish says she thinks she sees it. We're going ahead."

All eyes, cuz."

Las Vegas shooter fired 'incendiary' rounds at fuel tank

By Kyung Lah and Scott Glover, CNN

Updated 1:09 PM ET, Wed October 11, 2017

(CNN) Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock fired special "incendiary" bullets at a 43,000-barrel fuel tank in what investigators believe was an attempt to cause an explosion, two law enforcement sources told CNN.

Those types of rounds, meant to ignite what they hit, were found inside Paddock's room at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino and near the fuel tank a short distance away on the grounds of McCarran International Airport, the sources said.

Authorities have previously disclosed that Paddock fired at the tank and struck it with two rifle rounds, when he opened fire on the crowd below from his 32nd floor hotel room on October 1. They had not disclosed that he used incendiary rounds to fire at the tank, which contains jet fuel.

Housekeeper describes chilling interaction with Las Vegas gunman before massacre

LAS VEGAS -- Police documents released seven months after the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history included accounts of people who interacted with the gunman in the days before the massacre. According to the documents, one housekeeper at the Mandalay Bay hotel described her discomfort at Stephen Paddock sitting at a table eating soup and staring at her as she cleaned his hotel room four days before he opened fire from the same location.

The documents also include reports from at least two people who said a person they believed to be Paddock ranted in the days prior to last October's Las Vegas Strip attack about the federal government and gun control.

The claims by those people and others could not be verified because the names of all witnesses were blacked out in the 1,200 pages of police reports and accounts that the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department made public Wednesday after losing court battles to keep them secret.

Police and the FBI have not determined a motive in the ongoing investigation. Authorities said they believe Paddock acted alone and the attack had no link to international terrorism. Law enforcement refused Wednesday to provide any additional information including refusing to say whether the reports were credible.

A jailed man who gave a statement in November to police and the FBI recalled a man he believed to be Paddock telling him that Federal Emergency Management Agency "camps" set up after Hurricane Katrina in 2005 were "a dry run for law enforcement and military to start kickin' down doors and ... confiscating guns."

"Somebody has to wake up the American public and get them to arm themselves," the man said Paddock told him less than a month before the Oct. 1 shooting that killed 58 people and injured hundreds. "Sometimes sacrifices have to be made."

In a handwritten account, a woman said she overheard a man she later said was Paddock talking with another man at a Las Vegas restaurant just three days before the massacre. She told police that Paddock seemed angry about the 1990s standoffs at Waco, Texas, and Ruby Ridge in Idaho.

"At the time, I just thought 'strange guys' and I wanted to leave," said the woman.

The documents released Wednesday detailed terror, confusion and compassion among people helping the wounded after gunfire rained from a 32nd floor hotel room on a crowd of 22,000 people attending the Route 91 Harvest Festival concert on the Las Vegas Strip.

One woman told police she refused to leave her lifeless friend, whose eyes were still and lips turned blue, until a group of men picked her off the ground and guided her to a fence. One left a red bandanna on her friend's face.

A stagehand made a run for his pickup truck when he was suddenly surrounded by people begging for a ride away from the scene.

"I told them to get in however they could," he said.

A woman who fell wounded said another woman who pushed her was shot five times. She decided to play dead.

"A good guy just grabbed me and said, 'Love, you're gonna die here if I leave you here,'" she told police.

Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo said early this month the police investigation was not finished. He also apologized to the public for the release of information that he said would "further traumatize a wounded community."

Police and the FBI refused to answer questions from The Associated Press about the account from the man who said he met with Paddock outside a Las Vegas sporting goods store after posting an online ad to sell schematics to convert semi-automatic guns to fire automatically.

The man said Paddock became upset and launched into a tirade about gun control when the man rejected an offer of $500 apiece to modify semi-automatic guns to fire automatically.

Clark County Commission Chairman Steve Sisolak, who shared the release of public information with Lombardo and FBI Special Agent in Charge Aaron Rouse after the shooting, told the AP on Wednesday he had been assured that no motive has been identified.

Sisolak said he hadn't heard of the jailhouse account and he could not say whether it was credible.

Las Vegas police two weeks ago made public video from two officers' body cameras showing police blasting through the door of the hotel suite where Paddock is seen motionless on his back with a pool of blood staining the carpet near his head and a cache of assault-style weapons strewn about.

Media outlets sued to obtain videos, 911 recordings, evidence logs and interview reports to shed light on the response by public agencies, emergency workers and hotel officials during and after the shooting. The department has not provided all the materials it collected.

In March, MGM Resorts released surveillance video that showed Paddock in the days before he opened fire from his Mandalay Bay hotel room. MGM Resorts said it released the video because it wanted to provide greater context around Paddock's actions leading up to the shooting. The hotel said the images show that Paddock gave no outward indications of the massacre he was planning to carry out.
