A suspect is dead after shooting two people in a New York building that houses the NFL’s headquarters.

Both a police officer and a civilian were shot on Monday in the lobby of an office building in Midtown Manhattan, ABC7 in New York reports. The suspect in the shooting fled into the heart of the building, located at 345 Park Ave., and shot and killed himself. He was reportedly found on the 33rd floor of the building.

The initial shooting occurred just before 6:30 p.m. local time. Police say that the shooter entered the building and opened fire in the lobby, striking the police officer (who was working private security at the time) and the civilian.

ABC7 notes that the office building houses the headquarters of the NFL and the headquarters of investment company Blackstone. The incident resulted in the building going into a lockdown.

Additionally, ABC7 shared a security camera image of the suspected shooter carrying a weapon as he was about to enter the building.
