Officials say a man carrying a rifle killed four people at a New York City office tower. 

The shooting took place Monday afternoon at a midtown Manhattan office building that houses finance companies and the NFL headquarters. 

The victims include an off-duty New York City police officer. 

The gunman also wounded a fifth person before taking his own life. 

He was identified as a Las Vegas resident. 

Four other people got minor injuries attempting to flee the scene.

The motive is still unknown.
