Suspect in killing of UnitedHealth executive Brian Thompson in custody
ai generated text
Luigi Mangione, a 26-year-old individual, was detained in Altoona, Pennsylvania, after being spotted at a McDonald's restaurant. He was found carrying a "ghost gun," an untraceable firearm assembled from parts sold online, as well as a silencer and fake IDs. The ghost gun may have been produced using a 3D printer. Mangione was believed to have acted alone and was arrested on gun charges.
This is clearly a very polarized case. We have received some threats against our officers in the building here. We've started investigating some threats against some citizens in our community.
We just didn't think twice about it. We knew that was our guy.
He matches the description of the identification we've been looking for. He's also in possession of several items that we believe will connect him to this incident.
We do not kill people in cold blood to resolve policy differences or express a viewpoint.
But I have no tolerance, nor should anyone, for one man using an illegal ghost gun to murder someone because he thinks his opinion matters most.
So, we're looking into whether or not the insurance industry either denied a claim from him or didn't help him out to the fullest extent.
This combination of old-school detective work and new-age technology is what led to this result today.
In this case, the images that we shared with the public were spread far and wide, and the tips we received led to the recovery of crucial evidence.
Violence to combat any sort of corporate greed is unacceptable.
We ask that everyone respect the family's privacy as they mourn.
We thank law enforcement and will continue to work with them on this investigation.
