A deadly shooting occurred at a Manhattan office building on Monday, resulting in the deaths of an NYPD officer, a Blackstone executive, a security guard, and a Rudin employee. The incident, which took place at 345 Park Avenue, has left the city in mourning, with authorities working to determine the motive behind the attack.
The shooter, identified as Shane Tamura, died by self-inflicted gunshot after the shooting. The motive for the attack is still under investigation, but authorities believe Tamura may have had grievances with the NFL, which is based in the same building. The incident has prompted calls for stronger gun control measures and has led to an outpouring of condolences for the victims and their families.
NYPD Officer Didarul Islam, who was working as a private security guard at the building, was identified as one of the victims. Islam, 33, of the Bronx, was an immigrant from Bangladesh who worked in the NYPD’s 47th Precinct. His wife is pregnant, soon to give birth to their third child.
