According to the commissioner, the attacker was found dead immediately after his weapon by the police on the same floor, where he shot himself.
Major institutions of the building include Black Stone, Auditing Company (KPMG) and National Football League (NFL). After the incident, the entire region spread nervous and the building was immediately emptied.
According to Jessica Tish, a revolver, bullets, magazines and her names were also recovered from the attacker’s vehicle.
During the investigation, it was discovered that the attacker was facing mental health problems in the past, but he had legal permission to keep weapons in Nevada. He reached New York by driving a car from the state of Nevada and entered the city on the same day.
Police say the attacker clearly conducted the operation alone, but the Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is assisting the local police in the investigation into the incident.
Mayor Eric Adams confirmed that the life -learned police officer was from Bangladesh and was 36 years old. The dead consisted of two men and a woman, while it was stated to be important for another person’s position.
The causes of the incident are not yet known. Officials say the investigation is going on to find out the nature of the firing and the attackers.
