Report: Orlando killer’s wife expected to be arrested

Federal prosecutors convened a grand jury on Tuesday to investigate Omar Mateen’s wife, Noor Salman, for her role as an accessory to 49 counts of murder and 53 counts of attempted murder.

Salman will likely be arrested for knowing about her husband’s terrorism plot and failing to notify law enforcement, a source confirmed to Fox News on Tuesday.

Mateen opened fire at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Fla., early Sunday morning. He was killed by responding police officers.

His wife helped Mateen scout out locations he could target, including Disney Springs at Disney World.

Fox News reported she is cooperating with investigators and has taken a polygraph.
