A police officer who said he froze out of fear in a hallway one floor below the gunman behind the deadly 2017 Las Vegas shootings which killed 58, has been fired, department officials said this week.
Las Vegas officer Cordell Hendrex, who had been with the department for 12 years, admitted he stood frozen in the Mandalay Bay hotel hallway for nearly five minutes while the attacker carried out the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. modern-day history, in Oct. 2017.
