WABC reporting police are going on theory that second person is the shooter.

You never know.... Because the relatively gun free nature of the city is the psychology.... it changes the whole scene in the mind of anyone with criminal intent.
To: Labyrinthos
Then have stricter tests and training for permit holders. Anyone willing to jump throught the hoops would probably be better trained than the security guard.
Also, most people who get concealed carry permits are more well versed in firearms and tactics than $10/hr. security guards

Hopefully there are many cameras in City Hall. Word is that he knew the man as did others. Most likely they have a name by now.
Bloomberg's idiotic comment about it being an attack on democracy notwithstanding, it was someone hating a particular person and not a random attack on democracy. Bloomie should have stayed in hiding!

No, it wasn't the same guy...just another guy that also ran against him.

Must be some job perks for to get that council position. Is the guy muslim named Wai, or is that just FR speculation? We don't know the name of the 2nd victim yet.
This is off the wall but say it was terrorism and there are two victims because Uday and Qsay were killed yesterday. Very unlikely chance it was AQ but we are all jr detectives on crime threads imo. An eye for an eye. Of course, only FV is suggesting this - don't everybody call me "duh" now. It's just coincidental, isn't it?

They know who the shooter is?They're pretty sure it's Herbert. He was mentioned early on as Davis' guest. He is not the 2nd victim, who is now also dead.
To: mware
A guy from FNC says he didn't reconize the second person that was shot and was not another counsil member
Rick Leventhal is saying that it is possible that the shooter walked thru the metal dect. it went off and when he was stopped, Davis said that he was with him and they let the guy go thru

REPORTED AT 292:
EXCERPT
35th: Incumbent James Davis will be challenged by Tony Herbert (an aide to several elected officials over the years), perhaps Abraham Wasserman (a Crown Heights resident who ran in 2001), and maybe the unknown Othniel Boaz Askew. "I've never heard of him. Or her," Davis said.

WNBC New York is now saying that the man who accompanied Davis in shot at Davis, Davis shot back, and apparently they are the two dead. No mention if the shooter was this Ari (or whatever) guy.

Now they're saying it was a shootout between Davis and the shooter. Davis was a former police officer and carried a gun.
