The investigation into the massacre at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Fla., is now turning toward one of the people who was closest to the gunman: Omar Mateen’s wife, Noor Zahi Salman. News 13’s managing editor researched the phone number from where the call was placed, and matched it to Omar Mateen. Orlando Torres, 52, said at one point he heard the gunman talking on the phone to what sounded like a reporter. Mateen described Salman, his son’s second wife, as a “very sweet lady” who attended family affairs and took care of his grandson. He said he had barely slept since early Sunday morning, when he learned his only son, Omar, had carried out the worst mass shooting in recent American history.
