NEW YORK — A man with a gun thought to be similar to the one used in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was taken into police custody Monday for questioning in Pennsylvania , a law enforcement official told The Associated Press. The man is being held near Altoona , Pennsylvania , about 233 miles west of New York City , the official said. The official was not authorized to discuss details of the ongoing investigation and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.
On Friday, police found a backpack in the park that they say the killer discarded as he fled from the crime scene to an uptown bus station, where they believe he left the city on a bus. On Monday, K-9 units sniffed leaf-covered planters between walking paths in Central Park near where police found the shooter’s backpack. Farther along the path that police suspect he took through the park after the shooting, scuba divers geared up and started searching a pond for the third straight day.
