gunman Shane Tamura was targeting NFL offices, mayor Eric Adams says
The shooting took place along the Park Avenue, the country’s most well -known streets, and only blocks the Grand Central Terminal and Rockefeller Center. In addition, Unitedhealthcare CEO Brian Thompson said last December that prosecutors were angry with the institutional greed and he said he could pay more attention to security in the business world, less than 15 minutes of 15 minutes, when he was shot and killed.
US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that Manhattan knew this region well.
Trump said on social media, “I trust why this crazy drill has carried out such a meaningless violence. My heart, with the families of four people killed, including the NYPD officer who made a final sacrifice,” he said.
In addition to hosting NFL’s headquarters, skyscraper investment company Blackstone and other companies are home to.
Blackstone confirmed that one of his employees Wesley Leatner was among those killed.
“Words cannot express the destruction we feel,” he said. “Wesley was a beloved member of the Blackstone family and will be very missed. In our company and beyond, bright, passionate, warm, generous and deep respected.”

Leatner, a Yale graduate, was a real estate manager at Blackstone according to the company’s website, and in 2014 he spent for more than ten years before joining the company at Goldman Sachs.
The surveillance video showed that it was walking to the building along a public plaza, which carried a rifle, just before 18:30, with a M4 rifle. Then, he began to shoot, the police commissioner Jessica Tisch killed a police officer working with an institutional security detail and then hit a woman trying to seize the lobby while spraying with gunfire.
The commissioner then went to the elevator Bank and shot a guard on a security table and hit another man in the lobby.
“Our officer was killed on the right entrance to the right as soon as possible … The suspect entered the building, Ad Adams said in a TV interview. “First he passed the officer and then he returned to his right and saw him and took a few rounds.”

The man took the elevator to his 33rd floor offices of the company, Rudin Management and shot a person on that floor and killed. The commissioner then shot himself. The building is also organizing KPMG offices of 345 Park Avenue, Financial Services Company.
Tisch said that Islam was a 36 -year -old immigrant from Bangladesh, who served as a police officer in New York for 3½ years.
His body was poured into the NYPD flag while moving from the hospital to the ambulance and other officers drew attention.

Tisch, “he was doing the job we wanted him to do. He damaged himself. He made the final sacrifice,” he said. “He died while living: a hero.”
Adams said that a challenge of the investigation was that Tamura came to New York shortly before shooting and left a few clues in the region.
The mayor said that there is a difficulty for law enforcement officers, “Individuals are dealing with those from areas with loose arms laws that allow cities with strong arms laws such as New York to have these high powerful weapons”.
