A gunman who killed four people in a New York office block was trying to target the headquarters of the NFL but took the wrong lift, the city’s mayor has said.
Eric Adams said it’s believed the gunman was trying to get to the NFL (National Football League) offices after shooting several people on Monday in the building’s lobby.
Shane Tamura, from Las Vegas, accidentally entered the wrong set of lifts, the mayor said.
“We have reason to believe that he was focused on the NFL agency that was located in the building,” Mr Adams told MSNBC.
The shooting happened at 345 Park Avenue – a skyscraper in Manhattan that also houses firms including investment firm Blackstone and KPMG.
