A man with a gun thought to be similar to the one used in the killing of Brian Thompson was taken into police custody, an AP source says.

Summary

Luigi Nicholas Mangione, 26, was charged with murder in the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan.

Mangione, an Ivy League graduate, was arrested in Altoona, PA, after a tip from a McDonald’s customer.

Authorities found a 3D-printed pistol, writings expressing anger at corporate America, and $10,000 in cash.

Thompson was killed during an ambush last week, shaking the business world and sparking corporate security concerns.

Mangione is being held without bail and will be extradited to New York. Investigators credit public tips and surveillance footage for the arrest.

      A customer informed an employee who then called police. Two class traitors.

        I hope they feel very stupid. They probably had no idea what was really going on. Helping catch a killer probably felt good in the moment, but finding out the person who died was basically a serial killer would shame me for life.
