Overview
- The supervisor at Horseshoe Las Vegas legally sold the AR-15 style rifle used by Shane Tamura for $1,400, reversing earlier reports that only parts of the weapon were supplied.
- NYPD and FBI detectives have traveled to Las Vegas with search warrants to inspect Tamura’s apartment, secure his casino locker and review his digital devices as they probe his background.
- Tamura left a handwritten three-page note alleging chronic traumatic encephalopathy and accusing the NFL of concealing brain-injury risks while requesting a post-mortem examination of his brain.
- Four victims—an off-duty NYPD officer, a Blackstone executive, a security guard and a building employee—were killed and an NFL staffer was wounded but remains in stable condition.
- City leaders and NFL officials have offered condolences and renewed calls for tighter gun-control measures as investigators expand their focus on the shooter’s motives and weapons procurement.
