Former Governor Roy Cooper of North Carolina is here tonight. I'm looking forward to that interview.

We have a lot of news to get to a lot of information to impart over the course of this hour.

But we are going to start with the breaking news out in New York City.

What we know at this hour is this. A man with a gun entered an office building in Midtown Manhattan earlier this evening.

Once inside, he did open fire. NBC News is reporting that one police officer has been killed in this attack, and at least four others for civilians are dead as well. The Park Avenue building where the shooting took place has offices for several major companies, including the headquarters of the investment firm Blackstone.

Police released this photo of the man they believed to be the gunman entering the building, carrying what appears to be an assault-style rifle.

MSNBC is now reporting that the man's name is Shane Devin Tamura, T-A-M-U-R-A, 27 years old.

Police say the man appears to have died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

But again, we are also able to report that five others appear to have been killed in this incident,

including one police officer.

Now, the New York Police Department is referring to this suspect as a lone shooter. They are also saying that the scene is now contained,

but this is a quickly developing story, and we are learning more with each passing minute.

Joining us now as MSNBC investigative correspondent, Mark Santia.

Mark, I know that the story is developing rapidly. First of all, can you correct if I said

anything that's either wrong or now out of date in terms of our latest reporting?

No, Rachel, you're spot on. I mean, there's always, at a time like this, there's always

fluid information kind of back and forth. And sort of police are

locking everything down right now. They're also going through video right now, Rachel.

You mentioned the suspect, the gunman who police say took his own life inside that building,

Shane Devon, Tamura. We're hearing he is from Las Vegas, Nevada. Multiple sources tell us there is a vehicle in the area with Nevada plates.

So Rachel, what they're trying to do now is to determine if Shane came in that vehicle, in that Nevada vehicle, if there's any connection there.

So there's a lot of motion, there's a lot happening on the ground there right now.
