Did Brian Thompson’s killer get caught at a PA McDonald’s?
According to a New York Post report, authorities have nabbed a person of interest in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thomson at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania.
The suspect allegedly had a manifesto on him when he was taken into custody by cops in Altoona, PA — and a gun with a silencer.
Law enforcement was still trying to figure out the man’s real identity, sources said.
From The New York Post:
He was nabbed on a tip called in to local cops, who apprehended him, sources said.
The NYPD was on its way to Altoona late Monday morning, sources said.
The bust came amid a massive manhunt for the masked shooter who lay in wait outside the Hilton on Sixth Avenue where Thompson, 50, was set to speak at an investors’ conference Wednesday morning.
The chillingly efficient gunman snuck up behind Thompson on the sidewalk, pulled out what appeared to be a handgun with a silencer and calmly unloaded multiple shots at the CEO’s back, shocking surveillance footage showed.
