Orlando marks 6-month anniversary of nightclub massacre
ORLANDO, Fla. — Survivors, staff and family members of victims who were killed during the Orlando nightclub massacre are gathering outside Pulse to mark the six-month anniversary of the rampage.
They are gathering in the early hours Monday for a moment of silence at 2:02 a.m., the exact time gunman Omar Mateen started shooting inside the gay nightclub.
The early-morning memorial at Pulse is not open to the public but just those with a direct connection to the shooting.
Later in the day, local officials are organizing a memorial service at the Orange County Regional History Center.
