Overview

  • The shooter’s suicide note accused the NFL of hiding chronic traumatic encephalopathy, and medical examiners are set to test his brain tissue for confirmation.
  • Detectives traveled to Las Vegas to interview Tamura’s family and trace his cross-country purchase of an assault-style rifle and over 800 rounds of ammunition.
  • Forensic analysis found 47 spent casings in the lobby and on the 33rd floor, underscoring how quickly the assailant breached multiple security layers.
  • New York officials and building managers at 345 Park Avenue have begun auditing turnstile gates, elevator access controls and fortified panic-room procedures.
  • Funerals and memorials for the four victims—a security guard, an NYPD officer, a Blackstone executive and a Rudin Management associate—have reignited debates over workplace protections.
