Police are still working to understand the motives of the 27-year-old Nevadan who fired fire at a skyscraper in midtown Manhattan and killed at least four before shooting.
Shane Tamra walked to the lobby of 345 Park Ave., an office building that houses the NFL headquarters and a major financial company, and began filming “quickly” on the evening of July 28th, carrying an M4 rifle.
He shot at least four people dead, including 36-year-old New York City police officer Didalur Islam.
Tish said the suspect had a “recorded history of mental health.” Authorities believe he acted alone.
Tamura left a note that appears to be blaming the NFL for brain damage, and New York City Mayor Eric Adams said he appeared on CBS on July 29th.
“He had a note for him. He implied that he felt he had a CTE. “It looked like he blamed the NFL for an injury.”
This is what we know about gunmen up until now.
Tamura’s car drove all over the US before shooting
Tamura was seen leaving a double-parked black BMW outside a Manhattan skyscraper before entering the lobby and turning right to begin filming. The vehicle was registered under the name of Tamra, Nevada, Tish said.
Police found that vehicles traveled nationwide through Colorado on July 26th and vehicles traveled through Nebraska and Iowa on July 27th, Tish said. They tracked a vehicle in Columbia, New Jersey, a city about 70 miles west of New York City, at 4:24pm on July 28, hours before filming.
Inside, officers found a rifle case with round revolvers, ammunition, magazines and a backpack of medicines prescribed to the vehicle Tamra.
Tamura appeared to be targeting the NFL headquarters
Authorities said Tamra shot New York City police officer Didalur Islam shortly after entering the building. He then shot the guard behind the guard, and then shot a woman hidden behind the pillar, another man in the lobby.
The gunman then entered the elevator and headed to the 33rd floor. There, Rudin Management, the owner of the building, was placed and fired several times. One person was shot and killed before Tamra took his life, Tishi said.
Preliminary investigations suggest that gunmen may be taking the wrong elevator and intend to reach NFL headquarters rather than rudin’s management.
“That’s where he made additional gunfires and killed additional employees,” Adams said in an interview with CBS.
An NFL employee was seriously injured in mass shooting, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a note to staff members.
“We believe that all employees are safe, explained and that the building is nearly clear,” Goodell wrote in a note obtained by USA Today Sports.
This is a developing story.
