Franklin Township Police Det. Pat Colligan was at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Spa in Las Vegas Oct. 1 when a gunman killed 59 people and wounded 515.
Pat Colligan knew something was up when he saw a security guard and police officer in a traffic vest running full-speed through the crowded casino at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Spa in Las Vegas late in the evening of Oct. 1.
Colligan, a Franklin Township Police detective and president of the New Jersey Policeman’s Benevolent Association, had just finished dinner with some colleagues and was making his way to the elevators to get to his 29th floor room. They had been in Las Vegas since Sept. 28 for a yearly event involving the leadership of police unions from across the country.
