A 26-year-old man named as a person of interest in the fatal shooting of UnitedHealth Group Inc. executive Brian Thompson was arrested in Pennsylvania on Monday after a five-day manhunt.
The man, identified as Luigi Mangione, was recognized by an employee while he was eating at a McDonald’s restaurant in Altoona. He was found with a manifesto, multiple fake identifications and a so-called ghost gun with a suppressor, similar to the one used in the shooting, according to police. The document found on the man speaks to both his “motivation and mindset,” New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a news briefing on Monday.
