WASHINGTON— he Justice Department said Friday that it will review the Orlando Police Department’s response to the attack last month at a nightclub.
The city police department faced questions after the June 12 shooting at the Pulse nightclub, in which a gunman who pledged allegiance to the Islamic State killed 49 people, about whether it had waited too long after the rampage began to send in a SWAT team.
The Justice Department will examine the police department’s preparedness and response, as well as strategies and tactics it used during the massacre.
