The NFL has given its first public statement on the mass shooting which claimed the lives of four people at the building which houses its New York City headquarters.
Shane Tamura, a 27-year-old licensed private investigator and former high school football player from Las Vegas, carried out a deadly rampage in Midtown Manhattan on Monday night.
'The NFL is deeply grateful for the global outpouring of support following the tragic act of violence at the New York City building that houses our league office among other organizations,' the league said in a statement posted on social media.
'We honor the four innocent lives lost, including NYPD Officer Didarul Islam, whose heroism will never be forgotten. Our thoughts are with the survivors as they begin the difficult journey of physical and emotional recovery.
'The NFL family is resilient and united, and together, we will find strength in one another as we heal.'
