'So terrifying' - New Yorkers describe scrambling for cover in rush-hour shooting

Workers in New York City have described scrambling out of office blocks, as panic engulfed part of downtown Manhattan when a gunman opened fire and killed four people on Monday. People poured out of skyscrapers and onto the busy streets of the US city, some with their hands in the air, while others sheltered in buildings nearby. The violence unfolded in the early evening inside the 44-storey building at 345 Park Ave, home to the National Football League (NFL) office, as well as financial giants Blackstone and KPMG. Nekeisha Lewis said she was eating dinner with friends on the plaza when she heard gunfire. "I looked up and I saw the first wall of the first floor shatter," she told NBC News. "I realised 'oh my God, this is a shootout'," she said. "It felt like you were in a warzone almost." Ms Lewis then said she saw an injured man run out of the building. "By the time he got to us he said: 'Help, help, I've been shot.'" Ms Lewis said she and her partner helped the man get away from the building before police took over. "It's been literally the most scary situation I've ever been in," she said. Local TV footage showed lines of people evacuating the office building with their hands above their heads in the hours after the killings.

She and others ran into a conference room and barricaded tables against the door. "We were honestly really, really scared," she said, adding that she texted her parents to tell them that she loved them. Some workers from another nearby building were picking up food from a local outlet when they heard a loud noise and saw people running, AP reported. "It was like a crowd panic," said Anna Smith, explaining that she and others had returned to their place of work to find shelter. She said they were told they could leave after about two hours. A BBC journalist at the scene reported seeing scores of police vehicles and at least one person with a bloodied chest being taken away on a stretcher. Bystanders reported hearing what sounded like gunshots and police told those in the area to shelter in nearby buildings. Mama Bouhenni, working at the nearby Sip & Scoop coffee shop as the incident unfolded, told the BBC she saw dozens of people from surrounding buildings being evacuated. They held their hands above their heads, she said. Ms Bouhenni said she recognised many of them as her shop's customers. "This is so terrifying for them, I hope they can go home safe."

NYC Gunman Targeted NFL But Ended Up on Wrong Floor in Deadly Shooting

A mass shooting sparked an evening of fear and confusion at the center of American finance. Authorities say 27-year-old Shane Tamura shot and killed at least four people with an assault rifle before dying of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. The shooting occurred at a Midtown Manhattan tower that houses the offices of Blackstone, KPMG and the NFL. The gunman killed three people in the lobby, including a police officer, before taking the elevator to the offices of building landlord Rudin Management, where he killed one more person and then shot himself in the chest, according to New York City police commissioner Jessica Tisch. Tamura was targeting the NFL but ended up on the wrong floor by mistake, two senior law enforcement officers said. A manifesto and notes found on him indicated a fixation with Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, or CTE, caused by head trauma, the officers said. His social media feed showed his football career ended after a head injury, and he wrote that the NFL didn't do enough for CTE.
