News Outlets Sue To Get Records On Las Vegas Shooting

Attorneys representing multiple news outlets filed two lawsuits in Nevada Wednesday, asking officials to turn over law enforcement records related to the Oct. 1 Las Vegas shooting.

One of the lawsuits filed in Clark County District Court asks a judge to unseal court records related to at least 14 search warrants filed in connection with the investigation into shooter Stephen Paddock.

The second lawsuit demands the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department turn over records that have been unsuccessfully requested by several news outlets in public records requests.

Those requests include police body camera footage, recordings of 911 calls, dispatch calls and surveillance footage collected from Mandalay Bay.
