Gunman Opens Fire in Midtown Manhattan; Four Dead Including Bangladeshi-American NYPD Officer
A gunman opened fire inside a high-rise office building in Midtown Manhattan on Sunday evening, killing four people including a Bangladeshi-American police officer, city officials confirmed. New York City Mayor Eric Adams said during a press briefing that five people were shot during the incident, four of whom were pronounced dead. The victims included NYPD officer Didarul Islam, a three-year veteran of the force and an immigrant from Bangladesh. “Our officer did exactly what we asked of him. He made the ultimate sacrifice,” Adams said. The officer was married with two children, and his wife is currently expecting their third, according to NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch. Police said the suspected shooter was also killed, although it remains unclear whether he was shot by police or died by suicide. CBS News, citing law enforcement sources, reported that the gunman died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The incident unfolded around 6:45 p.m. local time near the intersection of Lexington Avenue and East 51st Street, according to eyewitnesses and reporters at the scene. BBC correspondent Indrani Basu, who was nearby, reported hearing multiple gunshots. “I saw NYPD vehicles and FDNY trucks rushing to the location. It was chaotic,” she said. Authorities recovered an M4-style rifle, a revolver with a spent magazine, and a Nevada state driver’s license from the suspect’s vehicle, police said. Security camera footage from the area reportedly showed a man walking with a firearm while wearing sunglasses, whom authorities identified as the suspected shooter. Police have not released his identity, but confirmed he acted alone. The NYPD said the situation has been brought under control and there is no ongoing threat to the public. An investigation is underway into the motive and background of the shooter. The FBI and Homeland Security are assisting local law enforcement with the probe.
