Orlando shootings: Club attacker 'disturbed' says ex-wife- Reuters

The ex-wife of a man who opened fire on a gay nightclub in Orlando in the early hours of Sunday has said he was "mentally unstable" and "disturbed".
 
Omar Mateen killed 50 people and wounded 53 more in the deadliest mass shooting in recent US history, before being shot dead by police, a BBC report has said.
 
The Islamic State group has said it was behind the attack, but the extent of its involvement is not clear.
 
A security company that Mateen used to work for said he was vetted twice.
 
The checks in 2007 and 2013 did not reveal anything of concern, G4S said, and Mateen had carried a gun as part of his job.
