Anika Basu was on the M34 bus and stopped at a stoplight in front of the Empire State Building when gunfire erupted this morning.
"We all heard like a ton of gunshots go off and looked to the left," she exclusively told Business Insider.
FOX New York is tweeted Friday morning three people have been shot outside the Empire State Building.
Basu said she saw three people fall on the sidewalk on the side of the building. She didn't see the shooter.
"There was three people down, there was mass chaos," she said, adding that Fifth Avenue is "completely out of control."
Of those three victims, Basu said one was one of the men who sells tourists passes to go to the top of the building.
"We didn't see the shooter, we didn't see anyone, we just saw the victims," she said.
Basu eventually got off the bus and walked out of the area, saying she was nervous she might also get shot.
One person is reportedly in custody.
