Summary
UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50, was fatally shot in a premeditated attack outside the New York Hilton Midtown in Manhattan. The gunman, still at large, fired at Thompson multiple times, striking him in the back and calf.
Shell casings found at the scene had the words "deny," "defend," and "depose" written on them, according to law enforcement. Despite known threats, Thompson did not have a security detail.
Surveillance footage shows the assailant ambushing Thompson from behind before fleeing. The motive remains unclear as investigations continue.

Makes me so happy that this is turning out to be a vigilante and not a hit man. Last night I was kind of bummed that the media was saying it wasn't but now it's looking like it was. Good speed hero! :07:
IDK, it could still be a hitman. Like how you can buy a cake that says "Happy Birthday, SorosFoorSoldier"
Why did you spoil their Christmas present?
Because they bought it already and the ingredients won't last long sitting in the cake box
