At least 5 people, including a police officer, killed in a Manhattan office building shooting
- On Monday evening in a Midtown Manhattan office building, Shane Devon Tamura opened fire, killing four individuals—one of whom was a former police officer—and injuring another person before taking his own life.
- Tamura, a 27-year-old Las Vegas resident with a documented mental health history, drove cross-country in a Nevada-registered BMW and entered the building armed with an M4 rifle, though his motive remains unknown.
- Surveillance footage captured Tamura summoning an elevator, riding to the 33rd floor, and firing down hallways and the lobby, shooting four civilians and police officer Didarul Islam, who served for three-and-a-half years.
- Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch stated that Islam was carrying out the duties assigned to him and paid the highest price. She also mentioned that he is survived by his wife, who is expecting their third child, and their two young sons.
- The shooting highlighted mental health challenges and prompted a dignified transfer for Islam while authorities continue investigating Tamura's background and motive.
