UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was shot and killed on a Manhattan street on his way to a conference. The person believed to be involved was seen near a bus station 46 minutes after the crime and may have left the city. The suspect arrived in New York City on a bus from Atlanta, stayed at a hostel, and was seen on video in various locations in the city before and after the shooting. Police are still investigating and have not made any arrests. The suspect paid in cash and provided a potentially fraudulent ID. Three pieces of ammunition recovered at the scene had words written on them. A reward of $60,000 has been offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the gunman. The investigation is ongoing and involves cooperation with the Atlanta police department, where the suspect’s bus originated. Police are being meticulous in their approach to ensure justice for the victim and his family. Arrest and conviction will require presenting evidence to a judge and jury, and police are working diligently to gather all necessary information.
