Justice Dept wants Pulse 911 case kept in federal court

The US Department of Justice is appealing a ruling over whether 911 calls made during a massacre at a Florida gay nightclub can be released.
The Justice Department said today that it was appealing US District Judge Paul Byron's ruling last week that the federal court lacks jurisdiction.
Byron sent the case back to state court.
Two dozen news media groups, including The Associated Press, sued the city of Orlando for the calls' release, saying they will help the public evaluate the police response.
The city claims the recordings are exempt under Florida's public records law, and that the FBI insists releasing them may disrupt the investigation.

In June, gunman Omar Mateen opened fire at the Pulse club nightclub in a rampage that left 49 people dead and 53 hospitalised.
