Tribute to Las Vegas mass shooting
The third-week episode of “Dancing With The Stars” was a tribute show after the Las Vegas mass shooting incident that happened on October 1.

The gunman, 64-year-old Stephen Paddock opened fire from the 32nd floor of Mandalay Bay hotel, which was located near the area of the concert event. Afterwards, he was found dead inside the hotel room.
