A large crowd gathered Tuesday evening in Tokyo's Shinjuku district for a candlelight vigil to mourn the victims of the LGBT nightclub massacre in Orlando, Florida.
The event near Shinjuku Ni-chome, Tokyo's main LGBT neighborhood, drew over 130 participants. They gathered in Hanazono Nishi Park, located just outside of the district, at 8 p.m., where candles were distributed by one of the organizers, the international LGBT group Stonewall Japan.
The attack at the Pulse club early Sunday left 49 people dead, making it the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.
