Summary

The NYPD released unmasked photos of the suspect in the targeted killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, who was shot outside the New York Hilton Midtown on Dec. 4.

Surveillance footage traced the suspect’s movements before and after the crime, including his escape on an e-bike.

Investigators uncovered cryptic words on shell casings at the scene and recovered items possibly containing DNA evidence.

Authorities are using facial recognition and offering a $10,000 reward for tips. NYC Mayor Eric Adams confirmed the attack was premeditated and involved a silencer. Motive remains unknown.

    This article is written so hastily… it is absolutely riddled with spelling mistakes. At least run it through a spell checker, sheesh.

        Honestly, I feel a bit relieved to see there are still people behind these articles. There’s something about mistakes that just makes it human.

      They were in a hurry to get the message out to everyone “the motive remains unknown.” They knew we would be looking to them for guidance on why anyone would kill a filthy rich healthcare CEO notorious for denying care to people. They couldn’t leave us hanging over a few simple spelling errors.

      Authors are former a wall street journal and a NY style section meme article writer… “what ever happened to the “I like corn” kid?”

      Makes sense that it’s both apologetic trash giving cover for capitalism and an overall shit product from a basic journalism perspective.
