“An Arizona man who sold ammunition to the gunman in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history has been charged with manufacturing armor-piercing bullets,” apnews.com reports. “A complaint says unfired armor-piercing bullets found inside the Las Vegas hotel room where the attack was launched on Oct. 1 contained the fingerprints of ammunition dealer Douglas Haig of Arizona [above].” Previously, Mr. Haig had admitted . . .

he’d sold ammo to Stephen Paddock. He’d publicly claimed that he’d noticed nothing suspicious when he sold 720 rounds of ammunition in the eventual killer weeks before the Mandalay Bay attack that killed 58 people.

“I was not in any way, shape or form associated with the horrible crime that he committed,” Haig said at a news conference Friday at the Phoenix-area office of his attorney, held shortly after he was charged.

Mr. Haig also revealed he’d sold Mr. Paddock “tracer rounds” from his home in Mesa, Arizona.
