UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was shot and killed in Manhattan on Wednesday morning. The attack happened outside the New York Hilton Midtown hotel around 6:45 a.m. Police call it a targeted attack. The suspect was seen riding an electric bike into Central Park and later leaving at West 85th Street. Investigators found bullets with words “depose,” “deny,” and “defend” inscribed. Surveillance footage and a water bottle left behind may help identify the killer. Police searched a hostel where the suspect might have stayed. A $10,000 reward is offered for tips. Thompson’s wife revealed he had received threats recently.
