Police are working to find the person who killed Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, outside a Manhattan hotel. Surveillance videos show the suspect arriving in New York by bus and staying at a hostel. After the shooting, he escaped on a bike into Central Park. Investigators have DNA evidence and tips from the public but no arrests yet.
Messages found on the bullet casings say “delay” and “deny,” words linked to insurance company complaints. Some believe the shooter was angry over healthcare issues. However, police haven’t said if this was the motive. UnitedHealthcare, like other insurers, often faces criticism for denying claims.
This case has shocked business leaders. Many are worried about safety as threats against CEOs grow. Companies are increasing security to protect executives. Police are asking for help, saying even small tips could lead to an arrest.
