So based on what you have read and understand as truth, the officers prevented the terrorist from shooting on helpless citizens for close to 50 minutes?

That is what I want to believe.

Dj, I don’t know exactly but I think at some point, and early on, he turned and engaged the two officers and security guard that were in the hallway. He hit the security officer.

Them being in the hall is the threat, he has to turn his attention away from shooting the concert goers to the immediate threat in the hallway. At some point, he shot himself. I would bet he still had ammunition left.

This is typical in many mass shootings. Once the shooter realizes the police have arrived their attention goes from offense to defense and often just kill them themselves.
