Multiple people shot in midtown Manhattan with gunman dead

Police responded to an active shooter situation reported in midtown Manhattan around 6:40 p.m. Monday.

At least two people, including a police officer, were shot and injured, according to initial reports. The victims’ conditions are unknown.

The gunman armed with a rifle walked into a skyscraper that houses the headquarters for Blackstone and the NFL. The suspect was killed, according to police.

The New York City Police Department locked down the affected area and issued a shelter-in-place order for about 100 people nearby.

City and federal officials quickly responded to the news.

“New Yorkers: there is an active shooter investigation taking place in Midtown right now,” Mayor Eric Adams posted on social media. “Please take proper safety precautions if you are in vicinity and do not go outside if you are near Park Avenue and East 51st Street.” Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) also confirmed she had been briefed on the shooting.

“FBI New York Field Office management personnel and agents are responding to provide support at the active crime scene in Manhattan,” FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said.

The investigation remains ongoing.

There was a separate shooting earlier Monday in Reno, Nevada, in which the suspect killed three people and injured at least three others. The shooter had no known connection to the victims, and his motive remains unknown at this time.
