NEW YORK -- A shooting at a midtown Manhattan office building on Monday left at least five people dead, including an off-duty New York City police officer, officials said.
Police identified the gunman as Shane Tamura, of Las Vegas, and said he fatally shot himself. He had a "documented mental health history," but the motive is still unknown, Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a news conference.
"We are working to understand why he targeted this particular location," Tisch said.
Another man was seriously injured and remains in critical condition, Mayor Eric Adams said.
Adams said officials are still "unraveling" what took place. "Five innocent people were shot" along with the perpetrator, he said.
The officer who was killed was Didarul Islam, 36, who was an immigrant from Bangla
