The tragic shooting in New York City took a shocking turn when it was revealed that the gunman, 27-year-old Shane Tamura, mistakenly targeted the wrong office while carrying a note that attributed his actions to a brain injury from football. Mayor Eric Adams disclosed that Tamura had left a note referencing CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy), a serious condition linked to high-impact sports like football, suggesting he held the NFL responsible for his mental health issues.

Eyewitness accounts portrayed feelings of despair and terror, with one witness likening the atmosphere to a warzone. As investigations continue, the community grapples with the aftermath of this tragic misfire in intentions.
