According to sources within the police department, Mangione’s mother contacted authorities to file the missing person report, mentioning that she had last spoken to her son around July 1 and that he was employed at True Car.

The location given for a work address was 124 Montgomery, which is permanently closed and there is no phone number.  

Mangione’s mother said she didn’t know any other place her son would frequent in San Francisco, per the source.

Authorities arrested Mangione in a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on Monday, at which point he allegedly presented local police with a fake ID and appeared to start shaking when they asked if he had been in New York recently.

In New York, Mangione faces one count of murder, two counts of second-degree criminal weapons possession, one count of second-degree possession of a forged document and one count of third-degree criminal weapons possession.

In Pennsylvania, he faces one count of forgery, one count of carrying a firearm without a license, one count of tampering with records or identification, one count of possession of instruments of a crime and one count of presenting false ID to law enforcement, according to court documents.
