Florida Governor Scott: 'This is a clear act of terror'

Republican Governor of Florida Rick Scott said on Sunday that the Orlando shooting was "a clear act of terror."
The shooter was identified as Omar Sadiqqui Mateen, a Florida resident, who a senior FBI official said might have had leanings towards Islamic State militants. Officials called the rampage a "terrorism incident," but cautioned that the suspected Islamist connection required further investigation.
