MIDTOWN MANHATTAN, NEW YORK CITY, JUL 28 – The gunman, with a documented mental illness, killed four people including an off-duty NYPD officer before committing suicide in a Midtown Manhattan office building, police said.
- On Monday, Shane Tamura entered the 345 Park Avenue skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan and killed five people including a New York Police Department officer before dying by suicide.
- Investigators say Tamura, alleged shooter, had a mental health history; his note referenced CTE and links to the NFL, suggesting a possible motive.
- According to police, Tamura, alleged shooter, carried an M4 assault-style rifle into the lobby, then advanced to the 33rd floor and shot himself.
- According to Commissioner Tisch, the scene was contained and the lone shooter neutralized, as Mayor Eric Adams urged residents to avoid East 52nd Street between Park Avenue and Lexington Avenue.
- Following the attack, Ken Wheatley, security management consultant, warns no environment can be fully secure unless it’s 'Fort Knox' in US office buildings.
