A Blackstone employee who was on their way to the lobby of the building to pick up food on Monday evening fled to safety after getting an alert from DoorDash.
The employee, who was working late, was heading down to the lobby when the delivery driver messaged her that there was a shooter in the lobby, according to The Wall Street Journal. The employee immediately rushed into a mother’s room with several other colleagues to take shelter as the harrowing scene unfolded in the lobby of 345 Park Avenue.

The gunman, identified as Shane Tamura, entered the lobby of the Midtown Manhattan office building, which houses global investment powerhouse Blackstone, the National Football league and global professional services firm KPMG, and proceeded to gun down four people with an M4 assault rifle.
Fox Business reached out to DoorDash for comment.
Tamura, who has a history of mental illness, began his tirade in the lobby before proceeding to the 33rd floor by mistake, New York City Mayor Adams disclosed in interviews.
