A judge unsealed nearly 300 pages of search warrant records, including one document that publicly identified an additional “person of interest” in the Oct. 1 massacre on the Las Vegas Strip. “Until the investigation can rule otherwise, Marilou Danley and Douglas Haig have become persons of interest who may have conspired with Stephen Paddock to commit Murder with a Deadly Weapon,” according to the Metropolitan Police Department document Danley was Paddock’s girlfriend and initially was named as a person of interest in the investigation. Authorities later said they do not expect her to face charges. Haig, whose name had not been previously released, spoke to reporters Tuesday evening outside his home in Mesa, Arizona, and confirmed that he has been contacted by investigators. “I’m the guy that sold ammunition to Stephen Paddock,” Haig said. He said he met with Paddock, the gunman behind the mass shooting, once but did not know him. He declined to answer additional questions.

If Marilou Danley is still a person of interest in the Las Vegas shooting investigation, law enforcement officials aren’t saying. Since her Oct. 3 return to the United States, authorities also were keeping the whereabouts of the shooter’s live-in girlfriend close to the vest. Las Vegas police said Danley was met by FBI agents for questioning when she landed at Los Angeles International Airport.
