Who is the NFL employee shot in NYC mass shooting? What we know so far.
It was a horrific scene in Manhattan on Monday night: A gunman walked into an office building in Midtown and opened fire, killing at least four people (including a police officer) and injuring others. Per authorities, he then killed himself. The building was 345 Park Avenue, where NFL headquarters are located among other businesses. And it turns out that among the shooting victims was a league employee who was injured by the gunman, whose name was Shane Tamura. Who was it? What do we know about all of this? Here's everything we know so far as this story continues to develop: Who was the NFL employee who was shot by Shane Tamura? The person has not been named. But in a memo from NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell that was sent, the person was "seriously injured" and is "currently in the hospital and in stable condition." He added that NFL staffers are at the hospital. What else did Roger Goodell say about the Shane Tamura shooting? Here's the entire memo: Was Shane Tamura targeting the NFL specifically? Per CNN: Papers found on the shooter's body indicate he had grievances with the National Football League and its handling of CTE, a brain disease linked to head trauma, a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation told CNN. What is CTE? As USA TODAY Sports wrote in 2022: CTE stands for chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a progressive degenerative brain disease, according to Boston University's CTE Research Center, which has led much of the research on the disease. The condition is caused by a history of repeated hits to the head and emerges months or even years after the head injuries were sustained, according to Boston University.

Portland Quaker charged with assaulting federal officer in anti-ICE riot
A man whose father describes him as a "lifelong Quaker who is deeply committed to pacifism" is now facing multiple federal charges over his alleged actions at an anti-ICE protest. A Portland, Ore., man, Robert Jacob Hoopes, is being charged with aggravated assault of a federal officer with a dangerous weapon, and depredation of federal property in an amount exceeding $1,000. During a June 14 anti-ICE protest, Hoopes was allegedly throwing large rocks at a building belonging to the agency located in South Portland. According to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Oregon, he threw one of the rocks at an ICE officer and caused a "significant laceration over the officer's eye." Additionally, Hoopes and two others were allegedly seen using a stop sign as a battering ram and caused "major damage" to the building's main entrance. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Oregon said Hoopes faces up to 20 years in federal prison for the aggravated assault charge and up to 10 years in prison for damaging federal property. "Jacob is a lifelong Quaker who is deeply committed to pacifism. He's an organic gardener and the soul of kindness," Hoopes' father, Tom, said, according to KATU 2. "Jacob was involved on June 14 in an action. What his involvement was: I can't speak to that. But he is deeply committed to justice." Quakers are known for their devotion to pacifism and, according to followers of the faith reject "war and violence in all its forms." The local ABC affiliate also quoted a letter originally written by Hoopes' roommate, who said "he is not someone who would have 'assaulted an officer.'" The roommate recalled that at approximately 9:00 a.m. local time on July 25, they saw "a flood of armed officers race into our driveway and charge at our house with assault rifles." Magistrate Judge Youlee Yim You granted Hoopes pretrial release at his first hearing, going against the federal prosecutors' request.
