New York City: So, here’s the scoop. The NYPD is looking into the shocking murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. They think the shooter might be a disgruntled employee or client. Crazy, right?
During a press conference, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said they’re digging deep into the evidence. He even joked that this isn’t a TV show where everything gets solved in an hour.
What’s really wild is that the words “delay,” “deny,” and “depose” were found on the shell casings. They might link back to a book about insurance companies. Talk about a motive!
Mayor Eric Adams mentioned that they’re closing in on the suspect, but they still haven’t caught him. They found a grey backpack along the escape route, but it’s been days since the shooting.
They’ve got a ton of clues, like fingerprints and video footage, but the suspect is still on the loose. And get this: they think he used a veterinary gun, which is usually quiet and used for putting down animals. How bizarre is that?
Thompson was a 50-year-old dad, and while his death is tragic, some folks are actually celebrating it. Many blame the health insurance industry for being greedy, and some musicians are even writing songs about the shooter.
It’s a mixed bag of emotions. People feel for Thompson’s family but also think about those struggling with medical debt. It’s a tough situation.
The suspect came to NYC on a Greyhound from Atlanta. After the shooting, he took off on an electric bike, then hopped in a cab. They think he might have left the city by bus.
The NYPD is offering a $10,000 reward for tips, and the FBI is in on it too, with a $50,000 reward. They’re not letting this one go easily!
