LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Theresa May said she had spoken to U.S. President Donald Trump to pass on her condolences after a mass shooting in Las Vegas which killed at least 50 people, and added that Britain would offer any help U.S. investigators needed. "This was an individual shooting randomly - a completely senseless and cowardly attack - and so many people have been killed and injured," May said in a televised interview. "I have offered the United States every assistance that we can to support them in their investigation," she added. (Reporting by Michael Holden and Alistair Smout; editing by David Milliken)
