How Shane Tamura went from high school football star to the NYC shooting mass murderer
How Shane Tamura went from high school football star to the NYC shooting mass murderer NEW YORK — More than a decade before he turned a Midtown NYC office building into a killing ground, Shane Tamura stood out as a rising star on a high school gridiron. Police believe the 27-year-old shooter's obsession with CTE, a brain disease football players often suffer from repetitive blows to the head, sent him on a deadly path to New York City's NFL headquarters on Park Avenue. But it's unclear if the once-promising varsity running back ever suffered from CTE or its effects, and there's no record that he played football, college or professional, in the years leading up to Monday's massacre. Here's what we know about Tamura's life, how he got the assault rifle that he used to kill an NYPD officer and three others, and the timeline of the shooting, which ended with Tamura firing a fatal bullet into his own chest and leaving a note reading, 'study my brain.' A standout player Tamura's skill on the field in high school earned him high praise from his coach at Golden Valley High School in Santa Clarita, California, who described him in October 2014 as one of the most talented players he'd seen in his 20-year career. 'He's a game-breaker. You definitely want the ball in his hands,' Dan Kelley, Tamura's coach, told The Signal, a Santa Clarita newspaper. 'He's even harder on himself when he doesn't take it all the way. I always have to remind him that not every play is going to go for a touchdown. … The sky is the limit with Shane. If he dedicates himself to the weight room and becomes the best football player in this valley, I think he has that capability.' Tamura himself had some words to share about his burgeoning football career: 'It's great being a big part of everything and scoring a lot of touchdowns, but I have to keep getting better.' He would soon transfer to Granada Hills, and in a short video interview published by the Los Angeles Daily News on YouTube on Sept 19. 2015, he appeared shy as his interviewer heaped praise on him as a 'standout running back' whose huge fourth-quarter touchdown sealed the team's 35-31 come-from-behind victory. 'We were down 10-0. We definitely had to stay disciplined — our coach kept saying, 'Don't hold your heads down, don't hold your heads down.' Just had to stay disciplined and come together as a team,' Tamura said. 'We just had to keep playing, keep fighting through it and just hold our heads up high and then a good result is gonna come.' But it's unclear if his sports career ever progressed past high school, and he never played in the NFL. His family moved to Las Vegas, and they kept to themselves, neighbors on their block told the Daily News. State records show he got a security guard license in California and a private investigator license in Nevada in 2019, but let both expire. Most recently, he worked at the Horseshoe Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. 'You never would have thought violence was something you'd associate with him,' Caleb Clarke, one of Tamura's former classmates, told NBC News. 'Everything he said was a joke.' Another friend, Julian Torres, who said he played football with Tamura from the second grade through high school in Santa Clarita, told the New York Times, 'This is not something I would expect of him. … He was a good kid. It's kind of crazy to see. He was smart, athletic, came from a good family.' Torres told the Times that a group of Tamura's high school friends had a chance encounter with him in Vegas a few weeks ago. 'He seemed cool, he seemed normal, like the same person they remembered,' Torres said. Mental illness, weapons But Tamura's life took a sharp turn several years ago as there were signs he was struggling psychologically while also acquiring weapons. NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Tamura had a 'documented mental health history,' with indications he had been placed under two mental health holds in Nevada, in 2022 and 2024. In 2022, a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officer saw Tamura on the street behaving like he might be a threat to himself, and cops took him to a hospital where he was put on a psychiatric hold, CNN reported. He was also busted for trespassing in Las Vegas in September 2023, public records show. Tamura refused to show his ID when he tried to collect $5,000 he won at the Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa, according to ABC News, which cites a Las Vegas police report. Staff there asked him to leave, but he wouldn't go without his money, and a cop arrested Tamura after he grabbed a casino security officer, according to the report. Prosecutors declined to pursue the charge. None of that likely would have prevented him from legally buying a gun, according to a report in the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Gun sellers in Nevada have been required to perform background checks on buyers since 2020, and a person with a felony conviction or a long-term involuntary mental heath commitment would be barred from purchase. An emergency mental health crisis hold isn't enough to stop someone from buying a gun, though, according to experts who spoke to the Review-Journal. On June 14, 2022, Tamura got a concealed firearms permit from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. Then, on June 12, seven weeks before the shooting, he legally purchased a Colt Python .357 caliber revolver, which the NYPD found in his vehicle. Cops found the empty box for the gun in his Nevada apartment. At some point, he bought the murder weapon from his supervisor at the Horseshoe Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, according to police. The supervisor, named Rick, legally purchased the weapon, an AR M-4 assault-style rifle with a scope and a barrel flashlight attached. He, in turn, sold it to Tamura for $1,400, police said. Rick also sold Tamura the BMW he used to drive cross-country to New York, cops said. 'Tell Rick I'm sorry,' Tamura wrote in a suicide note found in his wallet. Rick, who cops say has been cooperating and confessed to selling the rifle, hasn't been charged with a crime. Nevada doesn't prohibit the purchase of assault rifles, and gun sellers aren't required to be licensed with the state. 'I'm not allowed to talk to you,' Rick told a Daily News reporter before hanging up Tuesday. When police searched Tamura's apartment after the shooting, they found a tripod for the rifle and three prescription medication bottles: one for an anti-inflammatory, one for epilepsy medication and one for an antipsychotic. They also found a second suicide note that read: 'When I look into you and dad's eyes all I see is disappointment. I love you, Momma. I'm sorry.' A deadly rampage Tamura double-parked his BMW on Park Avenue and walked into the building at about 6:30 p.m. July 28, sparking more than 40 calls to 911 as he walked across an open plaza into 345 Park Ave., near 51st Street, the rifle in his hand. In the lobby, he encountered Officer Didarul Islam, who was in his NYPD uniform working a paid security detail, and shot him dead. As as he made his way to the elevator banks, he shot and killed security guard Aland Etienne, 46. Etienne, already wounded, dove behind a security desk, then crawled to an elevator control panel in a desperate, futile bid to push the button that would shut the elevators down. Tamura killed Blackstone executive Wesley LePatner, 43, and badly wounded an NFL executive leaving work, who called his office to warn them a shooter was on the loose. The killer then walked into an elevator, apparently looking for the NFL, which has space on four of the building's lower floors. But he picked the wrong elevator bank and ended up on the 33rd floor, where the offices of Rudin Management are located. Two sources who viewed surveillance footage said Tamura looked 'pissed and angry' he was on the wrong floor, and started firing through glass doors before kicking in the door to the Rudin offices. Sebije Nelovic, a cleaning worker on the floor, narrowly avoided death — she made a left turn down a corridor just as Tamura, heading down the same hallway, turned the opposite direction, police said. Rudin employee Julia Hyman, 27, was in a bathroom. When she stepped out, Tamura fatally shot her, cop sources said. Moments later, Tamura shot himself to death.

Jets' Jermaine Johnson remains sidelined, but still expected to be ready for Week 1
Jermaine Johnson was fully cleared by doctors a little over a week ago. Johnson has been back around the Jets at training camp the past few days, but trainers still haven't given him the okay to make his highly anticipated return to the practice field. First-year head coach Aaron Glenn said on Saturday that they are being cautious with the pass rusher, but the expectation is still that he'll be ready for the regular season opener. 'He's going through the protocol of getting himself ready,' Glenn said. 'Everyone has their own protocol -- he understands and he's working his ass off to get back, but we want to make sure we have him for the long haul. 'I've said it before, Week 1 and Week 2 it's all good, but I want to make [sure] that player is ready for the long haul -- and it's not just about him playing, it's about who he is as a person, we just want to make sure he's all good.' Johnson, of course, suffered an Achilles injury in Week 2 last season. He has been making steady progress in his recovery over the past few months, but the team still decided to place him on the PUP list at the beginning of training camp. This is a huge year for Johnson, as he could potentially hit free agency for the first time in his career next offseason after having his fifth-year option picked up just a few months ago. Before the injury, the 26-year-old had established himself as one of the NFL's top edge rushers. He landed his first career Pro Bowl appearance after recording 7.5 sacks, 16 QB hits, 11 tackles for loss, 55 total tackles, 56 pressures, 20 run stops, a pick-six, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery. A return to that dominant form would be a ginormous boost for Gang Green's defense.

Connecticut Sun sold to group led by Celtics minority owner with intention of moving team to Boston: Reports
A group led by Boston Celtics minority owner Steve Pagliuca is purchasing the Connecticut Sun for a record $325 million and putting another $100 million towards a team-specific practice facility, with the intention of moving the team to Boston, according to multiple reports. The move could come as soon as the 2027 season, according to The Associated Press. News of the sale was first reported by the Boston Globe. Advertisement The Sun have played one regular-season game in Boston's TD Garden in each of the past two seasons, with both being sellouts. 'Relocation decisions are made by the WNBA Board of Governors and not by individual teams. As part of our most recent expansion process, in which three new franchises were awarded to Cleveland, Detroit and Philadelphia on June 30, 2025, nine additional cities also applied for WNBA teams and remain under active consideration,' a WNBA spokesperson told The Athletic. 'No groups from Boston applied for a team at that time and those other cities remain under consideration based on the extensive work they did as part of the expansion process and currently have priority over Boston. Celtics' prospective ownership has also reached out to the league office and asked that Boston receive strong consideration for a WNBA franchise at the appropriate time.' The Athletic reported in March the Sun were exploring a sale — whether that was a partial stake for a capital investment or the full franchise — at a time when the team's parent company, the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority (MTGA), had a total debt of $3.1 billion, more than $470 million of which was set to mature in the 2025 fiscal year. Any sale is pending the Board of Governors approval. Connecticut's basketball operations are coming off a tumultuous offseason. Following six seasons of advancing to at least the WNBA semifinals, the roster experienced wholesale turnover. All five 2024 starters are now on different teams, including multi-time All-Stars Alyssa Thomas, DeWanna Bonner and Brionna Jones. Coach Stephanie White also left for the Indiana Fever along with her two lead assistants. Under a first-year head coach and a first-year general manager, the Sun started the season 5-21, worst in the WNBA. Their winning percentage of .192 would comfortably be the lowest in franchise history. In The Athletic's anonymous poll of WNBA players conducted during the first half of the season, Connecticut was voted the second-worst-run organization in the league behind Chicago, primarily due to a lack of infrastructure. The Sun practice either inside Mohegan Sun Arena or at the nearby Mohegan Tribal Community and Government Center — a mixed-use facility that also serves as a public space for tribal members, resulting in the occasional overlap of Connecticut practices with community events, like birthday parties. There were no plans for a Sun-specific practice facility in Connecticut. Advertisement Pagliuca, 70, is the former co-chairman of Bain Capital and is the owner of the Italian Serie A club Atalanta. He was one of the finalists for the sale of the Celtics, who were sold in March to Bill Chisholm, the managing partner of Symphony Technology Group, for $6.1 billion. After news broke that the Celtics would be sold to Chisholm, Pagliuca, who has been a minority owner of the Celtics since partnering with owner Wyc Grousbeck's family in 2002, said he was 'saddened' to find out that his majority ownership bid did not win out. Back in July, Sun rookie Saniya Rivers endorsed a possible move of the franchise to Boston, saying, 'If it was up to me, we might relocate here. (Boston is) a great city, has great food, great shops — I love to shop. So just being able to come to the neighboring city and just play here, I think it (does) a lot for women's basketball in general.' The price tag of $325 million is a coup for the MTGA after the Cleveland, Detroit and Philadelphia groups all paid a reported $250 million in expansion fees to join the league in 2028, 2029 and 2030, respectively. If the sale to Pagliuca's group goes through, the WNBA will add another owner with an NBA background, which has been an apparent priority for the league during expansion. All five of the upcoming expansion teams, plus the Golden State Valkyries, have NBA ties. The Sun originated as the Orlando Miracle, playing in Orlando from 1999-2002. When the Miracle were sold to the Mohegan Tribe ahead of the 2003 season, the Sun both became the WNBA's first independently-owned franchise as well as the first Native American Tribe to own a professional American sports team.
