Manhunt Intensifies for Suspect in Murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson
Authorities in New York City are pursuing a suspect in the shooting death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Mayor Eric Adams announced that police are tightening the search while withholding the suspect’s name to avoid giving him an advantage. Thompson was shot in a targeted attack just before an annual investor conference. A backpack linked to the suspect has been recovered, and police are examining evidence, including security footage and DNA. A reward for information on the suspect has been established, as investigations suggest the murder was premeditated.
