NFL Recommends Enhanced Security Measures at Team and League Facilities Following NYC Shooting (Copy)
NEW YORK CITY, AUG 11 – The NFL recommends armed officers and weapons screening at all facilities after a July 28 shooting that killed four people, including a police officer, to enhance safety measures.
- On July 28, Shane Tamura, a 27-year-old from Las Vegas, shot several people at the NFL headquarters lobby and a 33rd-floor office before killing himself.
- The shooting followed Tamura's stated grievance over a claimed brain disease and his history of mental illness, prompting concern at NFL facilities.
- In response, the NFL sent a memo on August 1 recommending enhanced security at all team and league facilities, including armed officers and weapons screening.
- The memo outlines three protocol changes: updated threat assessments, presence of armed officers when staff are present, and walk-through magnetometer plus X-ray screening.
- These recommendations will be examined during a dedicated league meeting on August 26 and focus on requiring coordination, resources, and prioritizing safety as a fundamental principle.
