A man in the Altoona, Pennsylvania, area is being questioned Monday in connection with last week’s UnitedHealthcare CEO killing in Manhattan, in part because he was found with a gun similar to the one used in the shooting, two sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.
The man, described as a "strong" person of interest in the death of Brian Thompson, was arrested on firearms charges. The NYPD later identified him as 26-year-old Luigi Mangione and said he had a manifesto on his person that speaks to his possible alleged motivation in the killing. They said that manifesto included no specific threats to others, but noted "it does seem he does have some ill will towards corporate America."
