A 26-year-old man has been identified as a “strong person of interest” and is being questioned by police in Pennsylvania on Monday in connection with the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
The man, identified by the New York Police Department as Luigi Mangione, was found with a gun that is similar to the one used by a masked gunman to kill the 50-year-old Thompson last Wednesday in New York City.
Mangione, a Towson, Maryland native whose last known address was in Honolulu, was found in possession of a silencer, and a mask, authorities said. Sources told NBC he also was carrying fake New Jersey identification in the name of “Marc Rosario.”
That was the same name on the fake New Jersey ID of a man who checked into a hostel in Manhattan, whom police were seeking as a person of interest in Thompson’s killing.
