Shin Tamura, the shooter in New York City, admitted suicide ideas – but it is still allowed to permit the weapon: sources

The shooter submitted at Midtown Office to obtain a weapon permit in 2022 – and he adhered to the statement after he told the Las Vegas authorities that he was suffering from suicide ideas, according to law enforcement sources.

Sources said that Shin Tamura gave the permit in June 2022 and informed the police at the time after that he was suffering from the mental health crisis.

But suicide thinking is not enough to cancel a permit, according to the sources.
