Shooter Captured In New York

A 26-year-old man was identified as a “person of interest” in connection with the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. At a press conference on Monday, Dec. 9, New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch identified the suspect as Luigi Mangione. Tisch confirmed several reports that had emerged earlier in the day, saying Mangione was recognized by an employee of a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, who then called the police. “Responding officers questioned the suspect, who was acting suspiciously and was carrying multiple fraudulent IDs, as well as a U.S. passport,” Tisch continued. “Upon further investigation, officers recovered a firearm on his person, as well as a suppressor, both consistent with the weapon used in the murder. They also recovered clothing, including a mask, consistent with those our wanted individual wore. Also recovered was a fraudulent New Jersey ID matching the ID our suspect used to check into his New York City hostel before the shooting incident.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-stories--4814524/support.
