In shooting chaos, Las Vegas airport became a safe haven

In this Friday, Oct. 6, 2017, Country music fan Julie Hart, with her boyfriend Mark Gay, recounts fleeing from the mass shooting at the Route 91 Harvest festival in Las Vegas on Sunday, Oct. 1, during an interview with The Associated Press at her family home in Anaheim Hills, Calif. After bullets began flying into a crowd of country music fans, a pack of 300-plus people ran away to the Las Vegas airport. That’s where they kicked down fences, hobbled over razor wires and were briefly mistaken by security officials for being attackers instead of shooting victims. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)
