The 20-year-old had watched Omar Mateen\u2019s feet as he paced about; she\u2019d listened to his rants to hostage negotiators about U.S. bombings in Afghanistan and his allegiance to militant Islamic groups.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Now, she could hear the police shouting outside. \u201cMove away from the walls! Move away from the walls!\u201d And she saw Mateen\u2019s feet backing towards the stall.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cHe said, \u2018Hey you!\u2019 to someone on the floor inside the bathroom and shot them, shot another person and then shot another person,\u201d Carter recalled, imitating the sound of the gun. \u201cBow! Bow! Bow!\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It was near dawn on Sunday, three hours after Mateen had begun his savage assault on the popular gay dancing spot.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Within moments, police were breaking through the wall.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThey told him, \u2018Put your weapon down! Put your weapon down!\u2019 He didn\u2019t, so they engaged in gunfire. They got him. They shot him dead,\u201d Carter said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In the days following the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history, survivors&#8217; tales have begun to emerge, recounting the horror of a siege that killed 49 people, as well as the attacker. Their stories reveal a scene of fear, desperation and sometimes methodical carnage, as well as a fraught, prolonged rescue.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cms-insert\" dir=\"ltr\">\n<div class=\"cms-media-content\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-usa-orlando-reconstruct-graphic-idUSKCN0Z12CB\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/static.reuters.com\/resources\/assets\/?d=20160615&amp;t=1&amp;i=dancefloor&amp;w=&amp;q=\" alt=\"See a graphic showing events inside the club\" width=\"479\" height=\"253\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"cms-caption-text\">Click to view the full graphic depicting\u00a0events inside the club<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In the moments after Mateen was shot, water poured from broken pipes in the demolished wall, a bloody tide filling the bathroom floor where bodies and wounded lay.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Carter called out to her friends \u2013- they\u2019d come down as a trio from Philadelphia, dancing and laughing through the first night of her first Florida vacation. They chose the club after searching the Internet for fun dance spots.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">One of Carter\u2019s companions, another 20-year-old named Tiara Parker, responded to her calls, saying she\u2019d been shot in the side. The other, Akyra Murray, just 18 and the life of the party, was slumped over Parker\u2019s lap, silent and motionless.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A man who\u2019d been trapped in the stall with them took Murray\u2019s pulse and said she was still breathing. Moments later, a SWAT team member pulled Carter out of the room, dragging her to safety by her arms. As she slid across the bloody floor, she saw Murray\u2019s phone and grabbed it.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cI truly believed that after I was told she was breathing, that her pulse was still going, that I would be able to get that phone back to her,\u201d Carter said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In the ambulance, rescuers cut away Carter\u2019s bloody clothing. They told her the bullet that shattered her right leg had also passed through her left leg.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Later, Carter would learn that Murray didn\u2019t make it. Lying in the hospital, among dozens of wounded, she wrote a poem. \u201cThe guilt of being alive is heavy,\u201d it concluded.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>\u201cMAKING SURE THEY&#8217;RE DEAD&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It was just after last call and many of Pulse\u2019s 300 patrons were finishing their last drink when Mateen, 29, entered around 2 a.m. with what one law enforcement official has described as a Sig Sauer MCX military-style rifle and Glock 9 mm handgun.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Angel Colon, 26, was hugging friends and saying goodbye when he heard &#8220;a big shotgun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Everyone froze as the gunfire continued, he said. Then everyone ran. Three bullets ripped into his leg, knocking him down. People trampled over him. &#8220;All I could hear was the shotgun, one after another, and people screaming, people yelling for help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mateen moved through the club, spraying bullets into a crowd that had been heaving to salsa and merengue dance music. Many of victims appear to have been killed in those first frantic minutes. For five to 10 minutes, he was &#8220;just shooting all over the place,&#8221; Colon said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Investigators later reported that victims\u2019 wounds suggested Mateen used both guns.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Some patrons fled through a door to a patio area at the side of the building, scrambling to take cover as they made it outside. Others escaped through a side door. And some headed toward a rear area walled off from the main part of the club.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mateen shot many people multiple times, \u201cmaking sure they&#8217;re dead,\u201d said Colon. He aimed his gun toward Colon&#8217;s head but the bullet struck his hand. Another grazed his hip.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">An off-duty police officer, in uniform and working security at the club, heard the gunfire from his unmarked car outside. He called immediately for backup and headed for the entrance, where he exchanged fire with Mateen, police said. Within minutes, other officers had joined him, and the firefight continued.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Across\u00a0town, Christopher Hunter, associate medical director of Orange County Emergency Medical Services System, got an emergency text around 2:15 a.m. Up to 20 patients, it said, multiple gunshot wounds. He wasn\u2019t sure it was real, so he called dispatchers to confirm.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He placed Orlando Regional Medical Center, the city&#8217;s main trauma facility, under \u201cstatus black&#8221;. The rarely used emergency code redirected all patients to other hospitals unless they were shooting victims or in the throes of a heart attack.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">At the hospital, Chadwick Smith, a trauma surgeon, called for backup, waking up other doctors. \u201cI said, this is not a drill, this is not a joke,\u201d he said. \u201cI need you here as fast as I can.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>TERROR IN BATHROOMS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">After exchanging fire with police, first with the lone officer, then with the others who joined him, Mateen retreated to the club\u2019s walled-off back room, where dozens of patrons had taken cover.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Many crammed into a pair of bathrooms along the rear wall. Carter and her two friends were in one, crammed with others in a single stall. Angel Santiago, 32, was in the other, also jammed in a stall full of people.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe just kept hearing gunfire over and over and over again,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd it just kept getting louder, closer, and I actually could start to smell what I guess was gunpowder.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mateen burst into Santiago\u2019s bathroom, spraying gunfire. Santiago was hit twice, in his left foot and right knee. \u201cThere were a lot of people hit; there was a lot of blood,\u201d Santiago said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The gunman then moved to the other bathroom, where Carter and her friends were hiding. More gunfire rang out, and more screams. As bullets pierced the stall, Carter and her friends all were hit.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">None of the survivors seemed certain about how long the shooting lasted. But at some point, Mateen paused, hunkered down in the back room.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Police used the opportunity to rescue some of the wounded in the main room. One officer dragged Colon out of the club and across the street to a Wendy\u2019s restaurant.\u00a0&#8220;I look over and there&#8217;s just bodies everywhere.\u00a0We&#8217;re all in pain,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Police decided not to pursue Mateen into the back of the club, fearing for the safety of the people trapped with him.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe did not want to risk their lives, and so we then contained that scene until SWAT operators go there,\u201d Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings said in an interview, referring to Special Weapons and Tactics officers.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>A SEA OF WOUNDED<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The firefighters at Station 5, just steps from the club, heard the shots before the emergency calls came in. People still were rushing out of the club as they arrived.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The firefighters pulled some of the wounded back to safety behind the firehouse. Ambulances loaded the wounded up &#8212; three at a time in some cases &#8212; and turned around immediately for the minute or two drive back to Orlando Regional. Others were transported in police cars, in trucks, in any available vehicle, officials said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Some of the victims were shot at close range in the chest, head, stomach and even the pelvis, said Joseph Ibrahim, a trauma medical director at Orlando Regional, where most of the 53 wounded were treated.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Inside the club, the hostages remained in the bathrooms, waiting.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe lay there for hours,\u201d Santiago said, \u201choping that police would come through at that point in time and save us all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Police were waiting, too, trying to figure out a safe way to end the siege.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mateen had called 911 after his initial assaults in the bathrooms, first hanging up at about 2:30 a.m.,\u00a0 then calling again and speaking briefly with a dispatcher, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.\u00a0The dispatcher called him back. Mateen made his claims of loyalty to militant Islamic groups.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">When he was off the phone, he kept talking, sometimes to himself, and sometimes addressing the hostages directly.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He telephoned a TV station. A producer picked up the 2:45 a.m. call. &#8220;I will never forget the words he said to me,&#8221; Matthew Gentili of News 13 said. &#8220;I&#8217;m the shooter. It&#8217;s me. I am the shooter,&#8221; Gentili said in a post on the station\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He said he did it for Islamic State, Gentili said. At one point, Mateen, who was born in New York to Afghan parents, began speaking a language Gentili believed to be Arabic. &#8220;At the time, I didn&#8217;t know what he was saying. He was speaking so fast.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In his conversations with police, Mateen suggested he had explosives with him, so the SWAT team decided on a plan to breach the rear wall of the bathrooms. At 5 a.m., they detonated explosive charges along the back of the building, then finished breaking through the wall with an armored vehicle.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Within minutes, Mateen was dead.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patience Carter had been on the floor of the bathroom stall for hours, her right femur shattered by a bullet, pinned beneath friends and strangers.
