Police stormed club after 3-hour standoff because of ‘imminent danger,’ Florida city’s chief says
The gunman who killed 49 people in an Orlando, Fla., nightclub was “cool and calm” during negotiations with police at the start of his bloody rampage, the hostage situation that followed and the police raid that ended the shootings early Sunday morning, according to the city’s police chief.
But Omar Mateen “wasn’t asking for a whole lot” during the roughly three-hour standoff, John Mina told reporters Monday morning.
