Orlando shooter Omar Mateen’s wife Noor may be charged as a co-conspirator in her husbands terror attack
Police obtain video showing Orlando shooter shopping for ammo with his wife
Orlando shooter Omar Mateen's wife Noor is an FBI target and could be charged as a co-conspirator in her husband's terror rampage.
Authorities have obtained a video showing the Orlando shooter shopping for ammunition with his wife ahead of the deadly mass shooting, report.
The footage, which has not yet been released, shows Mateen and Noor Salman making the purchase inside an unidentified store, but the report does not specify how much ammunition they bought or when they went shopping for it.
On Tuesday, it was revealed Salman pleaded with Mateen to not go through with the attack - but it remains unclear how much she knew about his plan.
Investigators believe Salman drove with Mateen to Pure as he staked out the gay nightclub.
Officers arrived at the address, in Rodeo, California, at around 3.15pm local time Tuesday.
Three FBI agents reportedly entered the house – leaving after an hour and a half without comment.

Salman’s mother, Zahi, 50, still lives at the house, which was left to her by her husband Ekbal, 56, following his death last year.
Depending on what the video contains, it may prove that she knew about Mateen's evil plans and could lead to criminal charges.
The massacre – the deadliest mass shooting in U.S history – left 49 dead and 53 others wounded.
Her romance with Mateen began online, according to a neighbour, and they were married in September 2011 near her hometown.
Another report said that Mateen was an excellent marksman who racked up near-perfect scores on Florida firearms tests.
Records obtained by NBC News show he regularly scored in the 230s on the Class G Florida gun license exam, which is given on local range at regular intervals.
The highest score possible is 240.
The test he took that month was held inside the St. Lucie Shooting Centre in Port St. Lucie, Florida - the same place he legally purchased the assault rifle and handgun used to carry out the massacre.
