A man who says he was a former neighbor of the alleged Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock, has claimed that Paddock could not have carried out the massacre and that it was actually a “set-up”.
The man claiming to be Paddock’s neighbor, a former Marine who called himself Rick, called the Michael Savage radio show, a local radio station in Las Vegas and said he has been Paddock’s neighbor between December 2015 and June 2016 in Nevada.
He said he used to see Paddock every other day and that the two would go to a local bar and play slot machines.

“I can tell you 100% this is not that kind of guy,” said Rick
“He never even told me that he owned a gun,” Rick continued, adding that Paddock had not expressed any religious or political affiliations or views during their conversations.
“I’m not a big conspiracy theory guy, but it don’t sit right,” said Rick, before claiming that the whole shooting was a “set up” and that Paddock’s body may have been left in the hotel room as other assailants carried out the shootings.

Info Wars reports:
The caller mentioned how some people in the crowd were warned 45 minutes before the shooting that they were going to die, suggesting that this was evidence of a wider plot and not a “lone wolf” attack.
As a firearms expert, he also questioned the lack of flashes coming from the hotel windows where the shooter was supposedly firing from.
Rick said he had already contacted the Clark County Sheriff’s Office to relay all the information he knew.
Although the claims are intriguing, it is important to remember that after virtually every terror attack and mass shooting, friends and neighbors express shock that the culprit would be capable of carrying out such horrors, with some outright denying it to be possible.
If Paddock was planning such a sophisticated operation and hoping to evade detection, he would not be blabbing details about it to his neighbors.
However, the neighbor’s claims are certain to attract more attention given that no specific motive has yet to be uncovered for the shooting.
