Omar Mir Siddique Mateen (November 16, 1986 - June 12, 2016) was the perpetrator of the June 12, 2016Pulse Nightclub massacre, in which he shot and killed 49 people in the club. During the massacre he called police and pledged allegiance to ISIL.

History
Mateen was born Omar Mir Seddique on November 16, 1986, at Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park, New York, to Afghan parents. His father, Mir Seddique Mateen (born 2 October 1956), aka Seddique Mohammad is a Persian-speaking Pashtun from Herat who emigrated from Afghanistan in the 1980s and became a naturalized US citizen on 17 November 1989. Mir Seddique Mateen also owns a non-profit company named “The Durand Jirga, Inc.” based in Port St. Lucie, Florida, which was founded in 2010. His mother, Shahla Mateen (born 1 December 1959), was taken into custody after she allegedly attacked her husband while he was brushing his teeth on the night of December 7, 2002. Both of his parents first settled in New York, producing four children, including Omar. He had two sisters, Mariam "Mary" Seddique and Sabrina Seddique. After being raised in New York for a few years, he moved with his family to Port St. Lucie, Florida, in 1991. His family was described as being moderate Muslims and "an all-American family".

In 2006, Mateen filed a petition for a name change, adding Mateen as his surname to match that of his parents.

In April 2009, Mateen married his first wife, Sitora Alisherzoda Yusufiy, an Uzbekistan-born woman whom he met in 2008 through Myspace, a social networking site. They separated after four months and divorced in July 2011.

Mateen visited Saudi Arabia for an eight-day trip in March 2011 and a ten-day trip in March 2012. The latter was organized by the Islamic Center at New York University. It included twelve New York City police officers and groups from Columbia and Yale and visited Mecca and Medina. Around these times, he went to the United Arab Emirates. FBI Director James Comey said Saudi officials helped investigate Mateen's trips. In June 2016, the House Intelligence Committee said that U.S. investigators "are searching for details about the Saudi Arabia trips."

In 2011, Mateen met his second wife, Noor Zahi Salman, on an online dating site, and the two married shortly afterward in Hercules, California, on September 29, 2011. Before that, she was married to a Palestinian, Ahmed Abu-Rahma from 8 June 2005 to 26 February 2010 in an arranged marriage that was organized in Ramallah of the Palestinian territories. Salman was born on 26 May 1986 in San Pablo, California, as the eldest of four daughters to Muslim Palestinian Arab immigrants; Bassam Abdallah Salman (d. 2015) and Ekbal Zahi, a grocery store owner Her family emigrated to California from Ramallah in the 1970s. She grew up in Rodeo, California. She graduated from John Swett High School in 2004 and attended a business college in nearby Concord, California. She moved into Mateen's Fort Pierce home in November 2012.[27] By September 2013, they were living in a house in Port St. Lucie with Mateen's father and another relative. She reportedly left Mateen and joined relatives in Rodeo, California, by December 2015. At the time of his death, Mateen had a three-year-old son with his second wife.

At the time of the shooting, he lived about 100 miles (160 kilometers) from Orlando, Florida, in Fort Pierce, but received mail at his parents' home in nearby Port St. Lucie. According to Florida Department of Law Enforcement records, he had no criminal record in Florida.

Pulse Nightclub Massacre
At approximately 2:00 a.m. on June 12, 2016, Mateen entered the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, and began shooting. At 2:22 a.m., he made a 9-1-1 call in which he pledged allegiance to ISIL; referenced Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon bombers; and mentioned Moner Mohammad Abu Salha, an acquaintance of his who died in a suicide bombing in Syria for the Al-Nusra Front in 2014. According to FBI officials, Mateen made two other 9-1-1 calls during the shooting. He also called News 13 of Orlando and identified himself as the nightclub shooter; The Washington Post reported that "he had carried out the Pulse attack for the Islamic State".

Mateen took hostages after police arrived and engaged in a gunfight with him. At approximately 5:00 a.m., police shot and killed Mateen, ending the shooting. A total of 49 people were left dead along with Mateen and 58 others were injured. Mateen was reported to have fired at least 110 rounds during the entire event. The attack was the second most deadly mass shooting by a single gunman in United States history after the 2017 shooting in Las Vegas and the deadliest incident of violence against LGBT people in U.S. history,

After the shooting, Mateen was eventually buried in the Muslim Cemetery of South Florida, in Hialeah Gardens. An autopsy found that Mateen was shot eight times by police in the head, chest, abdomen, calf, feet, and toe. The bullets, fired from a short distance, went through and through from front to back, suggesting Mateen was shot while facing officers. Several lacerations and "blunt-force injuries", such as bruising and scrapes to his torso, were found, though the origin of these wounds were made unclear. No alcohol or illegal drugs were detected in his system.

Modus Operandi
Mateen walked into the club with his weapons, he then shot randomly at people. He shot people dead and wounded on the ground to make sure they were dead. He also took hostages during the shooting and shot them randomly.
