Authorities have finally revealed information about the Midtown Manhattan shooting where Shane Devon Tamura, a former high school football star, who shot 5 people and killed 4 of them at the building where the NFL offices are. Christopher Raia, the agency’s assistant director in charge of the New York Field Office, said at a news conference, “While this remains an NYPD investigation, the FBI New York office stands ready to provide any and all resources to our system to assist our partners”.
“Initial checks of our internal systems have not revealed any information about the subject, but when and if more information becomes available, we will share what we can, when we can,” he added. FBI agents were immediately deployed into the scene where the shootings occurred. Investigators continue to probe whether the attack at the high-rise housing NFL headquarters was tied to Tamura’s athletic past.

Tamura’s football legacy and clouded dreams
According to reports, Tamura was a standout running back at Golden Valley and Granada Hills in California, earning regional recognition for his rushing and return stats during the 2014 and 2015 seasons. As a junior varsity player at Golden Valley, he logged over 1,300 all-purpose yards and 11 touchdowns.
At Granada Hills, he maintained a solid average of nearly 5 yards per carry and excelled on special teams. Despite this early promise, Tamura never advanced to college football or the NFL, a failure that some suggest fueled lingering resentment.
Possible NFL connection in investigation
The building targeted in the attack at 345 Park Avenue houses major tenants including the NFL headquarters, Blackstone, and KPMG. Although investigators have not confirmed his intended target, speculation has swirled online that Tamura may have targeted the NFL offices due to unresolved anger over his failed football aspirations. Some on social media noted that he “was a stand out RB that graduated in 2016”, equating the venue with a possible manifestation of his personal grievance toward the NFL.
NYPD and the FBI continue probing his digital footprint and reviewing surveillance footage to clarify if the choice of building was deliberate and tied to his sports past. While no official link has been confirmed, the focus on his football background has itensified scrutiny of the location and potential motive.

Arsenal hold on to beat Manchester United through Calafiori goal: Live updates and reaction
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes discussed his side’s performance on Sky Sports after the match.Let’s hear his thoughts...💬 “We did a lot of good things but it wasn’t enough. (After scoring) Arsenal didn’t create any good chances, we were defending very well. We created many good chances without scoring so that’s a point we have to look at and make it better next time.“In the first half the game was very divided, in the second Arsenal were defending the result. We controlled the game well, were very good on the ball. The main negative of the game is that we didn’t score.“Corners are part of the game, we know they are very good from set pieces. I haven’t seen the goal again... but Altay (Bayindir) was saying at the moment he went to punch the ball, he got a touch […]
France wins Germany Sail Grand Pix just days after driver is released from hospital
From the hospital and a crash that threatened their participation to spraying champagne on the podium. Somehow, Quentin Delapierre steered the French team to the unlikeliest of victories at the Germany Sail Grand Prix in Sassnitz on Sunday.On Friday, during a wild and windy practice session, Delapierre suffered a face-plant into the cockpit of the French F50 catamaran after their carbon-fiber rudder exploded off the back of the boat and high into the air. After being released from hospital with a clean bill of health, Delapierre set sail on a tricky course that threw all kinds of curve balls at the fleet over the weekend.AdvertisementWhere Saturday had been a test of nerve in strong, gusty winds that saw the F50s break new records for high-speed sailing, Sunday was a much more subtle game in lighter, patchy breeze. Even on their […]
Alabama’s Jam Miller expected to miss season opener vs. FSU with upper-body injury
Alabama starting tailback Jam Miller is out indefinitely after suffering an upper-body injury in Saturday’s scrimmage.Miller’s exact injury was not specified by Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer, who said in a statement Sunday that Miller had a “procedure” the night before.“Jam should recover fully with a timetable for his return yet to be determined,” DeBoer said.AdvertisementMiller, a senior, was preseason third-team All-SEC after being Alabama’s second-leading rusher last season with 668 yards and seven touchdowns. Then-quarterback Jalen Milroe was Alabama’s leading rusher.At minimum, Miller appears out for No. 8 Alabama’s season opener at unranked Florida State. But he could be facing an extended absence, putting his availability in peril for the Sept. 13 home game against unranked Wisconsin and the Sept. 27 trip to No. 5 Georgia. Miller could be a big loss for the Crimson Tide for however long he’s […]
NFL preseason scores and live updates: Latest from Jaguars vs. Saints and Bills vs. Bears
With reports of Caleb Williams struggling in training camp, here are your views on the Chicago Bears as the start of the NFL season rapidly approaches:Greb B.: Very concerning that QB1 is looking WORSE than last year in camp.Enrico P.: I'd wonder if Caleb is getting nervous or feeling the pressure but our guy doesn’t get nervous or feel pressure. Just ask him. Well and good but if he can’t get rid of the ball on time and hit his targets, the fact that he’s a highly touted No. 1 pick who can throw from wacky arm angles is going to become irrelevant. This is the NFL—you have to be able to run and execute a play or offense as designed. John C.: Yikes. I am a big believer in both Caleb and Ben but this camp is starting to […]
Jágr porazil v cyklistickém závodě vyhecovanou přítelkyni. Aspoň týden od ní budu mít klid, říká
Jágra na Lipno pozvala olympijská vítězka Kateřina Neumannová. On sem přijel znovu po třech letech, tehdy si rovněž střihl závod na kole, ale tentokrát byla trať pro něj přívětivější. „Ta trať tehdy byla daleko náročnější, hodně po silnici a se stoupáními. Letos to bylo takové oddechové.“Pro 53letého hokejistu, který se intenzivně chystá na další extraligovou sezonu, ale byl 20kilometrový závod především soubojem s přítelkyní. „Byl jsem suverénní! S přehledem jsem vyhrál. Domča si myslela, že mě porazí, ale v půlce závodu, když jsem viděl, jak tlačí kolo do kopce, věděl jsem, že nemá absolutně žádnou šanci. Minimálně týden tak od ní budu mít klid,“ říkal Jágr.Po jeho boku jela i Lucie Neumannová, dcera Kateřiny, která jako sportovní influencerka Jágrovo snažení dokumentovala. A když od ní hokejista slyšel, že čím vyšší věk, tím lepší forma, hned žertoval: „Už se těším, až mi bude šedesát. To porazím i tvou […]
