Except that the official one shooter according to witnesses was at least two... at least [SO FAR] they haven't found an ID he left behind - though he appears on blurry video, supposedly; nor have they [SO FAR] admitted he was 'well known to the police and intelligence authorities'. Even the claim that the 'one' gunman was killed is both stated by and denied by different authoritative reports.....at this point.
The authorities initially said one gunman entered the club and was later killed by police, yet witness testimony in Turkish media appeared to describe more than one attacker, heightening fears that at least one other gunman remained on the loose.
Local media described scenes of chaos in the club, which usually has hundreds of revellers on weekends, including people jumping into the Bosphorus to evade the attacker.
Families gathered outside the police cordon to inquire about relatives who were missing at the club, many of them weeping as they waited in the cold and rainy Istanbul night. Two men sobbed and collapsed in tears when they received news that a relative who was in the club had died.
Many were unable to reach their relatives.
One man who witnessed the attack inside Reina described the rush for the exits after someone came in and began firing shots at the crowd, but the witness was unable to describe the scene in detail because he was in shock.
