Manhattan Shooting Kills Officer, Injures NFL Employee

News summary

On Monday evening, a gunman named Shane Tamura entered a Midtown Manhattan office building housing the NFL headquarters and BlackRock, opening fire and killing four people including NYPD Officer Didarul Islam, who died protecting others. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell expressed deep gratitude to Officer Islam for his sacrifice and confirmed that one NFL employee was seriously injured but is in stable condition. Goodell assured that all other employees are safe and detailed that the NFL is supporting the injured employee's family and providing grief counseling to staff. New York Mayor Eric Adams stated that Tamura targeted the NFL offices but took the wrong elevator, and flags will be lowered to half-staff in honor of Officer Islam. The NFL has instructed New York-based employees to work remotely or take the day off and plans to increase security at 345 Park Avenue going forward. Officer Islam, an immigrant from Bangladesh and father of two with a third child on the way, was praised by police officials and city leaders for his heroism.
