'I'm next. I'm dead.' - Orlando shooting survivor recounts horror
Lying wounded on the floor of Pulse nightclub, with a gunman continuing to fire bullets into the motionless bodies of patrons all around him, Angel Colon thought it was his turn to die.
With three bullets in his leg - shattered as desperate clubgoers trampled him - he was unable to run to safety.
Then, the gunman shoots the already wounded Colon twice more, but somehow, the survivor said, "by the glory of God, he shoots towards my head but it hits my hand". "Then he shoots me again and it hits the side of my hip," he recalled.
Colon was careful not to give away the fact that - despite having a half-dozen bullets lodged in his body - he was not dead. "I had no reaction. I was just prepared to just stay there laying down so he won't know that I'm alive," he said in an interview on Tuesday (June 14).

Russian spies also targeted the networks of Trump and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, as well as the computers of some Republican political action committees, the Washington Post quoted US officials as saying, although details were not available.

Football: Euro debutants Iceland hold Portugal to shock draw
Rank outsiders Iceland enjoyed a superb big-stage debut as they clinched a shock 1-1 draw against Euro 2016 Group F favourites Portugal.
It was a miserable evening for Portugal's top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo even though he equalled Luis Figo's record of 127 appearances for his country.
Iceland produced a typically industrious performance on their debut in a major tournament with winger Birkir Bjarnason cancelling out Nani's first-half opener.
