UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was tragically shot and killed in a calculated attack outside the Hilton Midtown in New York City. The incident, occurring just before 7 a.m. on Wednesday, has sent shockwaves through the business community. Surveillance footage shows a masked gunman, appearing to lie in wait, ambushing Thompson and shooting him multiple times, even as the weapon momentarily jammed.
New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch described the attack as "premeditated" and "deliberate," with the suspect displaying expertise in handling firearms, suggesting possible military or law enforcement training. Authorities are combing through surveillance videos and investigating potential clues, including a phone and water bottle the suspect left behind.
The motive remains unclear, but Thompson’s widow revealed he had received threats related to his position. UnitedHealth Group, the parent company of UnitedHealthcare, acknowledged being aware of threats against its executives. The brazen attack has raised concerns about corporate security, especially in high-stakes industries.
Thompson, a respected leader known for his extensive contributions to healthcare, leaves behind a grieving family and a legacy of dedication. As police intensify their search for the suspect, the business world mourns the loss of a visionary leader.
