Police spokesperson Lieutenant Tony Lee tells the New York Daily News there was “suspicious activity” at the location.
He adds, “If there was a shooting, our detectives would investigate whether it was homicidal, accidental or suicidal. We haven’t pinpointed anything yet.”

Scott Ruffalo is married to fellow hairdresser, Luzelena Ruffalo, and is stepdad to her daughter, Lucinda.
