The gunman who shot dead at least four people at an office building in Midtown on Monday evening has been identified by law enforcement sources as a 27-year-old man from Las Vegas who was recently working as a security guard at a casino.
Shane Tamura was identified by authorities as the gunman who entered 345 Park Avenue—a luxurious 44-story building—and opened fire killing one police officer and at least three civilians before taking his own life. Authorities confirmed that one other person was also injured in the deadly attack. According to sources, officials found a vehicle at the scene with Nevada license plates that was registered to Tamura.
