NextImg:Police Arrested a ‘Strong Person of Interest’ in Killing of C.E.O.

After a five-day manhunt, police arrested a man today in connection with the brazen killing of a health insurance executive last week in Midtown Manhattan. Here’s the latest.

The man, who the authorities identified as Luigi Mangione, 26, was taken into custody at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pa. The local authorities were alerted to the man’s whereabouts by an employee at the McDonald’s who recognized him from photos shared by the police. He matched the description of the person suspected in the killing of the health executive, Brian Thompson, 50, chief of UnitedHealthcare.

Police said that Mangione was carrying a so-called ghost gun with a silencer, a fake ID matching the one used by the suspected gunman and a handwritten manifesto criticizing health care companies for putting profits above care.

Mangione was born and raised in Maryland, and has lived in San Francisco and Honolulu, the police said. He attended Gilman School, a private high school in Baltimore, where he wrestled and graduated in 2016 as the valedictorian.
