Los Angeles: The girlfriend of Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock, who killed 58 people and wounded 527 others over the weekend, was met by federal investigat­ors after landing at LAX airport in Los Angeles on Tuesday. Marilou Danley, who authoritie­s described as a ‘person of interest’ following Sunday’s shooting spree, arrived in the US after a flight from the Philippine­s, according to ABC

News. She was seen being wheeled through LAX in a wheelchair in footage obtained by NBC News.

The 62-year-old was wearing a hat and light blue jacket and was pushing a black suitcase in front of her. It is not yet clear where she was then taken or why she was in the wheelchair. A Police official revealed she voluntaril­y returned to the US in a bid to ‘clear her name’ of any involvemen­t in the massacre. Her siblings have since broken their silence saying she was unaware of Paddock’s motives.

This morning a report claimed that Marilou may have been married to two men at once, used two Social Security numbers, lived in multiple addresses in several different states and had two dates of birth.

It comes as police released terrifying bodycam footage that shows Las Vegas cops racing towards Paddock’s sniper nest as he unleashed minute upon minute of automatic weapons fire on concert-goers below.
