Police have identified Shane Devon Tamura as the man who entered a Midtown Manhattan office building wearing body armor and opened fire, killing four people with a high-powered rifle. Tamura, who recently lived in Las Vegas, was issued a concealed firearms permit by the Las Vegas Police Department. He completed high school in the Los Angeles area and played as a running back with Grenada Hills Charter. New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Tamura had a “documented mental health history.” His vehicle traveled through Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, and Columbia, New Jersey before entering New York City. After entering 345 Park Ave., Tamura took the elevator to the offices of Rudin Management on the 33rd floor, where he shot and killed one additional person. Tamura was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Police have not identified why he went to that floor or if he has any connection to the company.
