Orlando gunman Omar Mateen 'not directed by foreign group'

The gunman who killed 49 people in a shooting at Orlando's Pulse nightclub was not directed by a foreign terror group but was radicalised domestically, according to the FBI.

At a news conference on Monday, the FBI's Ron Hopper also said that in 911 emergency calls, Omar Mateen described his actions to an operator in a "chilling, calm and deliberate manner".
