"Coroner John Fudenberg extended condolences to all those affected by the incident and encouraged families to contact the Family Information Center in Las Vegas if they need any assistance related to the Coroner's Office processes." the Coroner's office said in a press released on its official website. On the list, there are 37 female victims and 22 dead men including Stephen Paddock, the 64-year-old gambler and real estate investor, who rained down about 1,600 rounds of ammo from the 32th floor suite of Mandalay Bay hotel into a crowd of more than 22,000 people attending Route 91 Harvest Country Music Festival Sunday night. The oldest victim is Patricia Mestas, born on July. 25 of 1950 and the youngest is 20-year-old lady Bailey Schweitzer, who was born on April 5 of 1997. In order to identify the victims in time, the Clark County Coroner's office got help from cities that are no stranger to mass casualties, including New York City and San Bernardino of California, where 14 people died in a shooting in December 2015. The Clark County Coroner office did not mark the victims' nationality, but there is no typical Chinese name on the official list. It could prove the preliminary conclusion of the Consulate General of China in San Francisco that no casualty of Chinese citizen in the deadliest mass shooting in American modern history.. "We have received no call or message for help from Chinese nationals," Zha Liyou, Deputy Consul General of the People's Republic of China in San Francisco told Xinhua early, "We haven't received any request for help from Chinese citizens via the Consular Protection 24-hour hotline, messaging platform or the hugely popular social-messaging platform WeChat." |
