An NBC New York reporter on the scene said on the air that police were keeping reporters and others back from the scene.
\u201cWe\u2019re just one block shy of 52nd Street, and that\u2019s because police are keeping people pretty far back, telling me that this is an active shooter scene,\u201d reporter Ida Siegal said on air.
During the report, police yelled and warned the crew and others to move even farther back.
