The man was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.

We were terribly saddened and shocked to hear that one of our crew members was the victim of a crime early this morning and has died as a result. ... Our hearts go out to his family and friends and we ask that you respect their privacy during this time.

Although the gunman's identity has not been released, NBC is working with law enforcement in the investigation. Production for the show was shut down in the meantime.
