Tap title to read story
Shane Tamura, 27, who killed four people in a Manhattan office building before taking his own life, had a history of mental health issues, including depression, migraines, and concussion-related symptoms, according to newly released Las Vegas police records. His mother's 2022 911 call revealed his suicidal ideation and that he was under medical care. Tamura, a former Horseshoe Las Vegas employee, blamed the NFL for hiding the dangers of brain injuries. Police found firearms, ammunition, and medications in his belongings after the shooting. The release of these records followed the New York City shooting and is considered extraordinary given privacy concerns.
