Empire State Building Shooting
Multiple people were shot outside New York City's Empire State Building on Aug. 24, 2012. New York City officials said the gunman was dead. A witness said the gunman was firing indiscriminately. The shootings occurred just outside the city's iconic skyscraper, a massive tourist attraction, at the height of the summer travel season and just after the morning rush hour. The intersection at the heart of midtown Manhattan was quickly shut down. The FBI also responded to the scene and said that there is "no initial connection to terrorism."
