With a death toll of at least 59 and over 500 injured, Sunday night’s mass shooting in Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas is considered one of the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
至少59人死亡,500余人受伤,周日晚间发生在拉斯维加斯曼德勒海湾度假胜地的扫射被认为是美国现代史上最为致命的扫射之一。
During the tragic incident, Hong Kong singer Leo Ku Kui-Kei and his wife were at the Bellagio hotel in Las Vegas when they heard gunshots about 1.6 miles away.
在这起悲剧事件发生时,香港歌手古巨基和他的妻子正在拉斯维加斯百乐宫酒店,他们听到了约1.6英里外的枪声。
In an interview with a Hong Kong radio programme, Ku shared the terrifying experience as they hid, along with their friends, under a gambling table with the rest of the crowd panicking and scrambling to find a safe cover for themselves.
在接受香港一个广播节目的采访时,古巨基分享了他们和朋友们藏匿于一个赌桌下的可怕经历,其他的人惊慌失措,爬着为自己寻找一个安全的遮蔽物。
“I was holding my wife in my arms under the table, having no idea [where exactly was the shooting occurring], what I could do, and what would happen next,” Ku, who was speaking from Las Vegas, was quoted as saying.
节目援引古巨基来自拉斯维加斯的讲话称:“我把我的妻子抱在怀里,不知道具体哪里正在发生枪击,也不知道我能做什么,接下来会发生什么。”
He said that he was caught in a stupor while the area became chaotic, with people around him screaming and running in all directions. Regaining his composure, he and his group ran towards the back of the building to seek shelter near the stairway after learning that the elevators had been halted.
他说,他陷入了麻木当中,这片区域乱成一团,周围的人尖叫着,往各个方面奔跑。他镇定下来,在得知电梯已被暂停后,他和他的人员跑向了酒店的后面,寻求一处靠近楼梯的避难所。
They then met a South Korean family which moved with them to a higher floor of the hotel.
随后,他们碰上了一个韩国家庭,这家人将他们送上了宾馆的更高楼。
Ku said he appreciated the help from the South Koreans and others in the hotel who provided some items that helped them get through the night.
古巨基说道,他感激从这些韩国人那儿得到的帮助,以及其他给他们东西帮助他们度过当晚的宾馆人员。
“Some foreigners also came out of their rooms to offer help, lending us batteries and blankets in case we had to stay overnight in the corridor,” he said.
他说道:“一些外国人也从他们的房间里跑出来提供帮助,借了我们电池和毯子,以防我们不得不在走廊里过夜。”
“I was still very nervous when I had to go out and walk back to our hotel,” Ku said, noting that he was even unable to sleep in his own room after the incident.
古巨基说道:“在不得不跑出去,以及回到宾馆时,我仍然十分紧张。”他指出,事后他在自己的房间里没法睡着。
