It also show concert goers screaming in terror and running for their lives as gunshots are heard in the main auditorium.
The building was engulfed in flames, with a huge column of black smoke reaching up into the sky. High winds reportedly limited the ability of fire engines and helicopters to douse the blaze.

Sam Neill, the New Zealand actor who has died aged 78, will forever be most associated with the film that made him an international star: Jurassic Park.
But there was much more to Neill’s career than escaping Velociraptors in the visitor centre of a billionaire’s tropical island.
Across a career spanning five decades, Neill showed himself to be an actor of depth, capable of taking on a wide range of roles in films ranging from box office hits to acclaimed arthouse movies.

More than 2,700 people may have died from heat-related causes in England and Wales during the exceptionally hot weather in May and June, experts’ estimates suggest.
The figure, from a team at Imperial College London, the Met Office and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, is based on what’s known about the dangers of extreme heat.
Most deaths will have occurred in the June heatwave, they say – the warmest June on record in England, when temperatures hit 37.7C (99.9F) at Lingwood, Norfolk, smashing the previous high of 35.6C set in 1957.
A rare red health alert was issued for parts of England and Wales at the time, warning even healthy people of the significant risk to life.
