Luigi Mangione, 26, sat alone at a table with a laptop and a backpack, according to police who arrested him at McDonald’s. When they told the man he was under a police investigation, he gave officers his real name: Luigi Mangione. Asked why he had used a false name, the suspect replied, “I clearly shouldn’t have,” according to the complaint. Police found “a black 3D-printed pistol” with a loaded Glock magazine and a “black silencer” that was also 3D-printed in his backpack, according to the criminal complaint. After the shooting, the suspect had traveled between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, making stops in between, before his capture on Monday, according to Pennsylvania Gov.

But the man suspected of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on a New York City sidewalk managed to evade capture for days – puzzling even law enforcement experts. Instead, the suspect took a Greyhound bus to New York, law enforcement sources told CNN. Investigators are still trying to determine where the suspect boarded, said John Miller, CNN’s chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst. He checked into a hostel on Manhattan’s Upper West Side using a fake New Jersey driver’s license, a law enforcement official told CNN. Leaving the backpack behind may have been a smart move on the suspect’s part, law enforcement experts said.

“He knows he’s on camera – it’s New York,” said John Miller, CNN’s chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst. The words “delay” and “depose” were written on a live round and a shell casing linked to the shooter, law enforcement sources told CNN. The state of New York does not have access to the DMV database for law enforcement purposes by statute,” Scott said. The potential DNA evidence was turned over to a lab for testing, a senior law enforcement official told Miller. “We already have lots of forensic evidence, fingerprints, DNA evidence,” plus a “massive camera canvass” of the suspected shooter’s movements through the city, she said.

"Right off the bat, this guy had a day to get away," Alcazar told NBC News. They probably already have a lot more information about him than they are letting on to the public." "That might be the lead the NYPD needs," retired NYPD Detective Jillian Snider told MSNBC. Meanwhile, the shooter shooter fled on foot and then on a rental bike, Tisch said. Before the shooting, the gunman bought a water bottle and two protein bars from a nearby Starbucks and discarded the items, the sources said.

The masked shooter was “lying in wait” for Thompson outside the New York Hilton Midtown Wednesday morning, according to Tisch. “And remember that not all of that technology belongs to the NYPD or belongs to government,” Corey added. We have given officers access to data where and when they need it: in the field and in real time,” Tisch told the Harvard Law Bulletin in 2019. Tisch also served as commissioner of the city’s Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications and, most recently, as head of the Sanitation Department. “I can’t even imagine what someone like me would do at the Police Department,” she recalled saying when a friend suggested she work for the NYPD.
