Nearly four days after the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, police still do not know the gunman’s name or whereabouts or have a motive for the killing.

Summary

The FBI is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the gunman who killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

The gunman, who arrived in New York City on November 24th, shot Thompson on December 4th outside a hotel hosting an investor conference.

Investigators believe the gunman, who concealed his identity with a mask, fled the city on a bus, leaving behind a backpack in Central Park.

    It’s all untrue, I just want $50k.

    It’s still information, tho.

      Is it? According to the Oxford dictionary, information are “facts or details about somebody/something”. Wouldn’t that make false information technically not information?

        False facts are still facts. A fact is anything that can be proven true or false. The opposite of a fact is an opinion.

        Edit: I just learned a “fact” has to be believed by the person saying it.

          Now I’m not sure if I should trust you on that or not…

            I understand what you mean. It’s a wacky concept to me as well. It seems more of “what a person believes to be a fact” is technically not an opinion.

        Just wait until the next presidential administration. Then you can call them “alternative facts”.
