Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east.

Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly show. We begin today with a terrifying scene in New York City as we learn new information about the gunman's potential motive.

Around 6.30 p.m. last night, Monday, a lone gunman armed with an M4 rifle marched into 345

Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, a 44-floor skyscraper that houses the likes of the NFL,

private equity behemoth Blackstone, the accounting firm KPMG,

and the management company for the building.

And when on the deadliest shooting spree, the city has seen in the last 25 years.

This is a picture for the listening audience we were seeing of the suspect walking in very calmly

with you've probably seen the picture by now. The rifle casually hanging down on his right

side. He looks like he's going for a stroll. The shooter, and we do not name mass shooters here

on the Megan Kelly show, killed four individuals, including a police officer before turning the gun on himself.

Another victim remains in critical condition. It is interesting to note that he killed himself with the long gun by shooting himself in the chest.

And there had been some comments wondering last night, why, how?

He had a revolver as well that was found in his BMW outside of the building, which, you know,

not to put too fine a point on it, but would have been a far easier weapon with which to commit suicide.

But we, I think, are getting some new information on why he did what he did.

And I'll get to that in a second.

The 27-year-old male suspect is from Las Vegas, originally born in Hawaii.

He drove across the country directly to New York City to inflict his carnage.

According to the police, the shooter's vehicle was seen in Colorado on Saturday, Nebraska,

and Iowa on Sunday, and then in Columbia, New Jersey at 4.24 p.m. Monday before entering New York

City. And I'm sure our listeners in those places are wondering whether they've encountered him
