Orlando survivor: Gunman laughed as he killed

A man who survived the weekend massacre in Orlando says gunman Omar Mateen laughed as he shot dead a man in the bathroom at the Pulse gay club, after he failed to fit into the packed stall in which some 10 people were hiding.

“The scary part was that he didn’t say anything, and what’s scarier than that was when he shot the boy that was already shot, he laughed,” Norman Casiano, who escaped with four bullet wounds to the back, tells ABC’s Local 10 channel. “And as he’s laughing as he fires through the whole front of the stall… And that’s when I got my first wound, my first two wounds.”

Casiano says that pleas for Mateen to stop only served to encourage the violence.

“As we’re yelling at him, please please don’t do this, you don’t want to do this, just spare us… I guess that enticed him more and he put his gun over the top of the stall and just… fired.”
