Update (1345ET): Police on Monday arrested a “strong person of interest” in the shooting death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan, New York City officials said on Monday. doge @IntelDoge Replying to @IntelDoge Mugshot released of alleged shooter Luigi Mangione. The individual, identified as Luigi Mangione, was arrested in Pennsylvania on gun charges and will face questioning, officials said. “We believe we have a strong person of interest,” New York Mayor Eric Adams said at the news conference. Commissioner Identifies Individual, Who Faces Gun Charges Jack Phillips reports via The Epoch Times that NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said in a Monday news conference that the person of interest in the case was identified as Mangione, 26. He was apprehended by authorities in Altoona, Pennsylvania, at a McDonald’s. Mangione was born and raised in Maryland, has ties to San Francisco, and his last known address in Honolulu, Hawaii, Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said at the briefing. Police officials said that he will face gun charges in Altoona, but Kenny said that “at some point, we’ll work out through extradition to bring him back to New York to face charges here, working with the Manhattan district attorney’s office.” “This just happened this morning,” Kenny said. “We’ll be working, backtracking his steps from New York to Altoona, Pennsylvania.” NYPD officers and Manhattan District Attorney’s Office prosecutors will interview Mangione further, authorities also said. Luigi Mangione has just been seen on video for the first time, as he was transported by police to a court appearance in Pennsylvania https://twitter.com/i/status/1866258758197760162 McDonald’s Employee Spotted Him Tisch said that the individual was spotted by a McDonald’s employee who recognized him. After the employee 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 said. “Upon further investigation, officers recovered a firearm on his person as well as a suppressor, both consistent with the weapon used in the murder,” she said. “They also recovered clothing, including a mask consistent with those worn by our wanted individual. 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.” Handwritten Note, ‘Ghost Gun’ Found Tisch later said that police officers found a “handwritten document that speaks to both his motivation and mindset” in the shooting and that he possessed an “ill will toward corporate America.” Jack Mac @JackMacCFB · Spoke with a source that had a lot of friends that went to high school with Luigi Mangione. What keeps coming up is a back surgery that “changed everything” for him and he went “absolutely crazy.” Checks out with his GoodReads history and the X-Ray in his header. CNN reports that the two-page document allegedly included lines like "these parasites had it coming" and "I do apologize for any strife and trauma, but it had to be done." Mangione was in possession of a “ghost gun” that was capable of firing a 9 mm round and had a suppressor, or silencer, attached, Kenny told the news conference. Kenny did not provide other details about the weapon or the handwritten document. Video footage of the Thompson shooting showed a masked individual in a hooded jacket approaching Thompson, 50, from behind before firing multiple shots. The suspect appears to have manually racked the gun’s slide as he fired the shots, drawing intense online speculation about the model or whether it had a silencer attached. “As of right now, the information we’re getting from Altoona is that the gun appears to be a ghost gun that may have been made on a 3D printer, capable of firing a 9 mm round,” Kenny said, in part. Social Media Accounts An X social media account with Mangione’s name, reviewed by The Epoch Times on Monday, showed that the user had degrees in computer science at the University of Pennsylvania. The majority of his posts or reposts are related to artificial intelligence, technology, and related topics. It does not appear that the account made any posts related to health insurance or UnitedHealthcare, and it made no comments on contemporary politics. As of Monday afternoon, the account had not been taken down by X. LinkedIn and Facebook accounts that appear to be associated with Mangione show that he studied at the University of Pennsylvania and is from Maryland, with his LinkedIn account showing he worked as a data engineer for TrueCar, based in Santa Monica. An Epoch Times review of the accounts also showed that no posts indicated an animus toward Thompson, the health insurance industry, or corporate America. The X account followed a wide range of accounts, including New York Times writer Ezra Klein, OpenAI founder Sam Altman, Edward Snowden, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), conservative rapper Zuby, statistician Nassim Nicholas Taleb, and the Erowid Center, a website that provides information and accounts on psychoactive chemicals and plants. The Epoch Times has not been able to independently verify the three social media accounts’ authenticity. May Have Left City by Bus Last week, Tisch and Kenny told CNN in an interview that the suspect appeared to have left New York City via bus after he took a cab to a Port Authority bus station in Manhattan that offers Greyhound bus travel. Over the past several days, the NYPD has shared one video and multiple photos of the suspect and a “person of interest” in the case, with one showing the individual with his mask down and smiling. Authorities have asked the public to provide any tips to the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers line, and anyone who provides information leading to the suspect’s arrest and capture is eligible to receive a $10,000 reward. The FBI also posted a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the gunman. On Sunday morning, the NYPD released two more photos of the person of interest, showing a masked individual in what appears to be a taxi cab. During the Dec. 4 incident, Thompson was walking to a Midtown Manhattan Hilton hotel for a UnitedHealthcare conference when he was shot several times in what authorities described as a “brazen” and “targeted” attack. The suspect, they said, waited for bystanders to pass before opening fire on Thompson. Authorities on Monday have not released a motive in the slaying. Mangione’s educational background includes being the valedictorian of his 2016 class at the Gilman School in Baltimore - an educational establishment we have discussed before... Peruvian Bull @peruvian_bull Let me get this straight: Killer is Luigi Mangione, Ivy League grad with degrees in comp sci, avid reader and active contributor on GitHub. He has a 130+ IQ but he takes off his mask at a Starbucks to flirt with an employee, then an hour later goes and calmly kills the CEO of a major healthcare company, rides away on a bike. A week later goes to a local McDonalds where he brings the murder weapon, the fake ID he used to check into a hotel, and a written manifesto on how horrible the American healthcare system is. He somehow gets identified by the cashier after he sits down. He works on his laptop until police come inside the McDonalds, sitting there with a ghost gun and suppressor he made himself. Gotcha
