From Fox News: The gunman who stormed a high-rise building in the heart of New York City on Monday evening was trying to target the NFL’s headquarters but took the wrong elevator bank, Mayor Eric Adams said on Tuesday.
Adams appeared on Fox 5 NY’s “Good Day New York” and said the gunman, identified as Shane Tamura, accidentally entered the wrong elevator banks. He said he went to the floor where Rudin Management was located.
Adams added that the gunman alluded to having suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and that he had a grievance against the NFL.
“It’s unfortunate that during these days and times, active shooter drills are taking place all across the country and Rudin Management did their job of clearly having those active shooter drills and the staffers who were in the building were able to utilize some of the safe rooms and I believe it played a great role in saving lives of some of the staffers,” he said.
“He seemed to have blamed the NFL,” the mayor said. “The NFL headquarters was located in the building, and he mistakenly went up the wrong elevator bank.”
Investigators are still looking through the “suicide note” left by the gunman.
