Good morning. It's Monday, March 6. An Orange County deputy was injured after being attacked while trying to break up a fight between fans after the Orlando City Soccer game on Sunday, police said.

FBI Director James Comey asked the Justice Department to issue a statement refuting President Trump's claim that President Obama ordered a wiretap of Trump's phones before the election, according to U.S. officials, but the department did not do so.
