Authorities identified the gunman as Shane Tamura of Las Vegas, who died from a self-inflicted gun wound. 

A total of four other people were killed in the shooting, including New York Police Department Officer Didarul Islam, 36. Islam had been on the force for three-and-a-half years and is survived by his pregnant wife and two children. 

"He was doing the job that we asked him to do. He put himself in harm’s way. He made the ultimate sacrifice," Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a news conference on Monday. "He died as he lived. A hero."
