A family from New South Wales have told of the scariest night of their lives after they were caught up in a mass shooting which left at least 58 people dead and more than 500 injured.
The preliminary death toll makes the attack the deadliest mass shooting in US history, after a gunman opened fire on a crowd of 22,000 people at the Route 91 country music festival on Sunday night, local time.

It's believed the man - a 64-year-old Nevada local who has since died - opened fire from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay casino complex, adjacent to the open-air music festival.
