The New York Police Department (NYPD) has released two new images of a person of interest in connection with the killing of Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, the largest private health insurer in the United States. Thompson was fatally shot on Wednesday morning in what investigators are describing as a “targeted attack.”

The incident occurred at approximately 6:45 a.m. EST outside the Hilton hotel in Midtown Manhattan. Thompson was struck in the back and leg by gunfire as he prepared for a scheduled appearance at an investor conference later that day. Despite attempts to provide medical aid, he succumbed to his injuries.

Investigators recovered shell casings from the scene that bore the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose.” Authorities believe these inscriptions could hold clues to the motive behind the attack, though no specific connections have been made public.

The NYPD is employing facial recognition technology and has recovered a discarded phone believed to belong to the suspect. A surveillance image captured in a nearby Starbucks shortly before the shooting is also being analyzed as part of efforts to identify and locate the individual.

This case has drawn significant attention due to Thompson’s high-profile role in the healthcare industry. Police have not yet confirmed whether the attack is linked to his professional activities or personal matters. Investigations are ongoing as law enforcement officials work to track down the suspect and uncover the motive for the killing.

The killing of Brian Thompson has sent shockwaves through both the business and local communities, prompting heightened security measures at events involving high-profile figures in the city. Law enforcement officials have urged anyone with information about the person of interest or the incident to come forward. As the manhunt intensifies, authorities are piecing together the suspect’s movements before and after the shooting, hoping to bring clarity to a case that has raised numerous questions about the possible motives behind this deliberate act of violence.
