UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect arrested at Pennsylvania McDonald's

A person who graduated from an Ivy League institution was apprehended at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania for the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. This arrest came after a witness identified him from pictures of the suspect shared by law enforcement, as revealed by a source familiar with the investigation to Fox News Digital.

The individual in question is Luigi Mangione, a 26-year-old software engineer, who was found with a gun and silencer resembling those used in the shooting of Thompson. Additionally, he was found in possession of four counterfeit IDs, one of which bore the same name as the ID used by the suspected shooter to register at a hostel on the Upper West Side, as reported by the New York Post.

A high-ranking law enforcement official, as reported by the New York Times, stated that Mangione had documented grievances against healthcare companies for prioritizing profits over providing proper care.
