I prayed for my life until the police came. The gunman killed in a shootout with police now identified as this man, 29yearold omar mateen, and he was investigated by the fbi twice. We put a face to some of the victims, and 15 of them identified so far. We are live outside the killers home. And we look at president s call for gun control. New information in the investigation, and leland, good morning. Reporter good morning to you. We are now up to 21 of these victims identified. That means 29 families will wake up in the next couple of hours for the second day not knowing that their loved ones died. Behind me about 200 yards down orange avenue here, the fbi leading this investigation still onscene, and they turned the airconditioning on full blast to try and preserve evidence there.

It is unclear whether mateen saw those or not. Thats a part of the investigation as the fbi continues to try to comb through not only his cell phone not any social media accounts. They dont know who mateen may or may not have talked to over the last months or yea
