The Midtown office shooter successfully applied for a gun permit in 2022 – and held onto the permit after he told Las Vegas authorities he was having suicidal thoughts, according to law enforcement sources. Shane Tamura was granted the permit in June 2022 and notified police sometime after that he was suffering from a mental health crisis, sources said. But suicidal ideations are not enough to revoke a permit, according to sources.
