 
A mass shooting came to pass on July 29, five dead including the shooter, one of the sickening acts of violence that extended onto a high-rise office building in Midtown Manhattan. The skyscraper had major corporations housed therein; the NFL and Blackstone; it was turned into chaos and tragedy by the entrance of the perpetrator who opened fire on everyone. The initial reports go as far as saying that the suspect, fully armed and kitted out in tactical gear, wanted to go against the NFL on the grounds of health-related issues dealing with brain injuries in players, but he ended up going to the wrong floor.
2. Victims and Investigation
The loss of life among casualties included that of an off-duty New York City Police Department officer, a Blackstone employee, and two other workers of the office. Several other persons were wounded and rushed to nearby hospitals. Before the police could make the arrest, the suspect was said to have died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The authorities are trying to piece together his motives and background, with some reports stating that he was formerly an activist for CTE, chronic traumatic encephalopathy-a medicine related to repeated head trauma. Law enforcement officials are now viewing surveillance tape and speaking to witnesses to establish his manner of entry and potential security lapses.
3. City in Mourning, Security in Question
New York City Mayor Eric Adams spoke to the press soon after the tragedy, calling it a “senseless tragedy” and extending condolences to the families of the victims. Flags throughout the city have been lowered to half-staff. The event rekindled discussions about workplace security and gun control in urban America. Experts question whether an enraged man really had so much freedom to walk into one of the most secure corporate buildings in the city. Meanwhile, throughout the investigations, businesses in the area are reviewing their emergency plans and security processes. click here for the source
