Police release identity of Henry Bello’s victim [PHOTOS]

The New York Police Department has released the photograph of the doctor murdered by Nigerian born United States resident, Dr. Henry Bello. She is Dr. Tracy Sin-Yee Tam, a family medicine physician.




The police have also given the reasons why Bello went on the rampage.It is believed that Bello had been sacked for harassing a former colleague, and had promised to ‘come back and kill staff members’.

He had intended to target this colleague, but opened fire on others when he couldn’t find them, it has been claimed.

The New York Daily News reported that Bello emailed their newspaper just two hours before the rampage, blaming the medical centre for ruining his dreams and his career. He wrote: “This hospital terminated my road to a licensure to practice medicine.


“First, I was told it was because I always kept to myself. Then it was because of an altercation with a nurse.” He then claimed he was ultimately fired for threatening a co-worker.

After blasting seven hospital staff, he then appeared to try and start a fire on the 16th floor. But the sprinklers were activated and put out the blaze. Bello’s body was found on the 17th floor near that of a woman who was pronounced dead at the scene.

Six further people were found shot on the 16th floor – five of whom police say are seriously injured ‘fighting for their lives’ along with a man who has a gunshot wound to his leg.
