Police are on the hunt for the masked gunman who fatally shot UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a New York City Hilton hotel on Dec. 4. Authorities are actively searching for clues in Atlanta, Georgia, and the Big Apple.
An unidentified gunman approached UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson from behind Wednesday morning and opened fire outside the New York Hilton Midtown in Manhattan, then vanished into the streets of the Big Apple, prompting a large-scale manhunt.
Authorities have not revealed a motive, but after bullet casings at the scene were found with words 'deny', 'depose' and 'defend' written on them – a possible reference to the book 'Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don't Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It' – speculation swirled that the slaying may have grown out of resentment for a denied claim.
