Country music star Jason Aldean took to social media to say he and his crew were safe after a gunman killed at least 59 people at an outdoor concert Sunday night.
Aldean was performing at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in front of a crowd of more than 22,000 when the bullets rained down on the crowd.
He posted on Instagram hours later, calling the shooting “beyond horrific.”
“It hurts my heart that this would happen to anyone who was just coming out to enjoy what should have been a fun night,” Aldean said.
Las Vegas authorities say 527 were wounded in the attack.
SWAT teams using explosives stormed the gunman’s hotel room in the sleek, gold-colored glass skyscraper and found he had killed himself, authorities said.
