Medical examiner determines cause and manner of death for Park Avenue high-rise shooter

The gunman who killed four people inside a midtown Manhattan office tower died by suicide from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the torso, according to the New York City Medical Examiner

The gunman who killed four people inside a midtown Manhattan office tower died by suicide from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the torso, according to the New York City Medical Examiner.

His four victims — NYPD Officer Didarul Islam, Aland Etienne, Julia Hyman and Wesley Lepatner — died of gunshot wounds as well, the medical examiner’s office said Tuesday night.

The ME has not yet made any determinations regarding a CTE diagnosis for the gunman, Shane Tamura. The office only said that a neuropathology expert will examine his brain “as part of the additional studies for the complete autopsy record.”

CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy, can be diagnosed only through autopsy. It’s unclear whether Tamura showed symptoms of CTE.

In a note left at the scene, Tamura said he wondered if CTE was a cause of his mental troubles.
