Stephen Paddock, who carried out the worst mass shooting in modern US, had 42 weapons. It's emerged that it took an hour and twelve minutes from the first call to the emergency services to the moment police stormed Paddock's hotel room and found him dead. Fifty-nine people were killed when he opened fire on crowds at a concert taking place below in Las Vegas on Monday. Also: in Spain unions call a general strike across Catalonia in protest at police tactics during Sunday's disputed referendum, and tributes to the American rock star, Tom Petty who has died following a cardiac arrest.
