Line for Las Vegas Blood Donations Stretches Down Block

People lined up down the block outside Las Vegas blood banks on Monday, October 2, after a shooting that killed more than 50 and injured hundreds more. People were told the best way to help was to donate blood, according to a news report.

Police told people to use two blood banks rather than going to the hospital, since they were inundated with patients from the shooting. The parking lot at United Blood Services on Charleston Boulevard was full at 4am, a reporter tweeted.
