2. War veteran responds to sexist note

US war veteran Rebecca Landis Hayes has hit back at the stranger who left a sexist note on her car.

Hayes parked her car in a space reserved for war veterans while shopping in Concord, North Carolina, this week.

When she returned with her groceries, she found a note on the windscreen that read: “This parking is for veterans, lady. Learn to read and have some respect.”

Ms Hayes shared the narrow-minded anonymous note on Facebook, along with her own scathing response.

She pointed out that she was a veteran, having served eight years in the US Navy.

“I’m sorry that you can’t see my eight years of service in the United Sates Navy," Ms Hayes wrote. "I’m sorry that your narrow misogynistic world view can’t conceive of the fact that there are female Veterans.

“I’m sorry that I have to explain myself to people like you. Mostly, I’m sorry that we didn’t get a chance to have this conversation face to face, and that you didn’t have the integrity and intestinal fortitude to identify yourself, qualities the military emphasises."

She ended the powerful post with with: “I served, did you?”

Her Facebook response has been shared more than 10,000 times already.

4. Orlando shooter's wife faces criminal charges

Orlando shooter Omar Mateen texted with his wife during last weekend's massacre at a Florida gay club Pulse, it's been revealed. Now she could face criminal charges for possible involvement in the crime, according to a Fox News report citing law enforcement officials.

Detectives told Fox that if Noor Salman, 30, did drive her husband to scout locations and buy ammunition -- as some reports have claimed -- she could be found just as guilty as him of committing a hate crime.

It has also been revealed that Salman called her husband soon after 2am that fatal Sunday.

Mateen did not answer, so at 2.30am Salman texted: "Where are you?," a law enforcement official told CNN.

Mateen, who had just started the horrifying massacre at that point, texted his wife back asking: "Do you see what's happening?"

When she replied back texting "no," he wrote: "I love you babe."

Investigators have not revealed if Ms Salman called authorities during the shooting to identify her husband as the gunman.

The devastating hate crime, which targeted the LGBT+ community on Latin Night at the popular gay nightclub, left 49 victims dead and 53 more injured.

Mateen also died during the attack.
