Johnson City, New York: Authorities have searched the home of the suspected gunman in the New York state immigrant centre shooting.

Police carried out three computer hard drives, a brown canvas rifle case, a briefcase, a small suitcase and several paper bags on Friday evening.

Thirteen people were killed at the American Civic Association centre in nearby Binghamton before the gunman apparently committed suicide.

The suspected gunman carried ID with the name of 42-year-old Jiverly Voong. A law enforcement officer said that was believed to be an alias.

Rep. Maurice Hinchey says the man known as Voong had recently been let go from IBM. The company could not immediately confirm that.
