The United Nations Headquarters in New York was cordoned off after a gunman was spotted in the area. This was reported by some international media. The police department confirmed that it had received several calls about it.
A massive police deployment arrived on the scene. In one video we see a white man with gray hair wearing a red sweater and a beige jacket walking back and forth in front of the UN. Looks like he’s aiming a big gun at himself while the cops keep an eye on him. The United Nations security service has asked “all personnel and delegates in the UN headquarters to remain under cover”. The staff “is monitoring the situation and will update accordingly,” they added in a statement.
