At least 20 people were killed inside a Florida nightclub and 42 wounded in an attack by a shooter armed with assault-type rifle, police said on Sunday.
Authorities had yet to determine the exact number of people killed, but Orlando police chief John Mina said “approximately 20” were dead.
The shooter is dead, police said, describing the scene as a “mass casualty situation.”
An FBI spokesperson said authorities were looking into whether the mass shooting was an act of domestic or international terror, and if the shooter was a lone wolf.
Police said the shooter was armed with an assault-type rifle, a handgun and some type of suspicious device.
