The New York Police Department released two new photos of a person wanted for questioning in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. The individual can be seen wearing a blue medical mask and a black hoodie in one photo, and a blue mask and dark-colored puffer jacket in another. Investigators have tracked some of his movements by taxi. Despite a $60,000 reward for information leading to an arrest, the person of interest remains unidentified. Thompson was gunned down outside a New York hotel and was targeted specifically, with shell casings found at the scene inscribed with threatening words. Police found a backpack believed to belong to the suspect, containing a cellphone and a jacket, but no gun. The man may have left the state after the killing, possibly traveling from Atlanta to New York City by bus. Authorities are investigating his movements and connections to get more information. Thompson had reportedly received threats before his death, though his wife was unsure of the specifics. The investigation into the killing and manhunt for the gunman is ongoing, with authorities trying to track down the person responsible for the shooting.
