The Latest: Owner of LGBT Club Says Gunman Contacted Him
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ORLANDO, Fla. — Jun 14, 2016, 9:38 PM ET
The Latest on the Florida nightclub shooting (all times local):
9:30 p.m.
The owner of another Orlando LGBT club says he got a Facebook friend request last week from the gunman in the Pulse nightclub shooting.
WKMG-TV (http://bit.ly/21liyIN) reports that owner Michael Bass says he looked through Omar Mateen's Facebook friend list and didn't see anything that would relate to a LGBT club, so he rejected the friend request. He says he recognized Mateen after news of the Sunday shooting that left 49 people dead.
The station says investigators from the Orlando Police Department and the FBI interviewed Bass about the contact.
