A gunman opened fire at a hospital in New York City on Friday, killing one person and injuring six others before killing himself, according New York Police Commissioner James O'Neill.
The gunfire reportedly broke out at about 2:50 p.m. ET at Bronx-Lebanon Hospital.
O'Neill said police received a 911 call about a shooter on the 16th floor of the hospital. The victims were found on the 16th and 17th floors.
The shooter was found on the 17th floor with an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound, wearing a white medical lab coat, and a rifle was found nearby. The hospital fire alarm system had been activated, O'Neill said, after the gunman attempted to set himself on fire.
A female victim was found dead nearby on the 17th floor. Five other people were injured on the 16th floor and are in serious condition. Another victim is being treated for a gunshot wound to the leg.
In a brief news conference, O'Neill said the shooter was a former employee of the hospital but did not identify him.
