Ulster Unionist Party Leader Robin Swann MLA has responded to the truly horrific events which have taken place in Las Vegas, resulting in the murder of over 50 people.
Robin Swann said:
“The events which have unfolded overnight in Las Vegas are truly horrific. The City has always afforded a warm welcome to visitors from Northern Ireland and farther afield.
“It is scarcely believable that someone so filled with evil could inflict such heartache and pain on innocent people out enjoying themselves at a music festival.
“The scale of the toll of dead and injured is hard to comprehend, with more than 50 dead and 400 taken to hospital.
“The families of the victims are in our thoughts and prayers and we wish a speedy recovery to those so horribly injured and acknowledge the bravery and commitment of the first responders.”
