President Barack Obama has concluded his meeting with survivors and the families of victims killed in Sunday’s nightclub shooting in Orlando.

The president is visiting Orlando to express solidarity with the grief-stricken community.

The White House says Obama and Vice President Joe Biden also met with the owners and staff of the Pulse nightclub who were working when the attack occurred. Two employees were killed in the attack.

The president and vice president have also had the chance to meet with local law enforcement officials to thank them for their work in responding to the attack, which killed 49 and injured more than 50.
