was fatally shot by police officers in rush hour gunfire that injured nine
bystanders outside of the Empire State Building, authorities said.
Jeffrey Johnson, 58, who had been laid off by apparel company Hazan Import
Corp. a year ago, shot a 41-year-old former co-worker three times with a
semiautomatic handgun at 10 West 33rd St. around 9 a.m., killing him, said
