The FBI recently rolled out a fresh wanted poster in the hunt for the suspect behind the shocking assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel. It appears that not even a big-city backdrop can deter the criminals determined to make a statement—or a getaway. The suspect was last seen taking a cab and strutting down a New York City sidewalk, seemingly unfazed by the potential consequences of his actions. A cool $50,000 is up for grabs for anyone who can help catch this criminal mastermind.
This heinous act, described as a “targeted attack,” went down early in the morning hours on December 4, 2024. Thompson, a prominent 50-year-old CEO, was singled out and tragically met his end just outside of 1335 Avenue of the Americas. With the shooting occurring shortly before 7 a.m., it raises questions about just how brazen some criminals have become. The shooter allegedly waited in ambush, unloaded a few rounds—one striking Thompson in the back, the other in his right calf—and vanished as if he were a ghost. Who says crime doesn’t pay, especially when you can hop on an electric bike and slip into the shadows of the Port Authority bus station?
Speaking of shadows, that once-busy bus station may have played a key role in the suspect’s getaway. Authorities believe he could currently be long gone, heading towards New Jersey, Boston, or even our nation’s capital. The fact that the manhunt has spread across several states only emphasizes the extensive network of escape routes available to those who operate outside the law. With the NYPD and the FBI hot on his trail, one can only hope this shooting is a wake-up call to New York officials about the alarming increase in such violent escapades.

Adding a layer of absurdity to the whole situation, investigators stumbled upon a backpack associated with the suspect in Central Park. Inside, they found an intriguing stash of Monopoly money—whether this is a statement on the rising cost of living in NYC or just an odd choice of currency, who can say? This backpack is now set to undergo forensic testing, and one must wonder: could the zippers hold crucial DNA evidence that finally leads to this criminal’s capture? If so, it would give new meaning to “snagging a suspect.”
In a bizarre twist that could only emerge from a dramatic crime story, it appears the gunman left behind some rather unconventional clues. Scribbled words like “Depose,” “Deny,” and “Defend” were allegedly found on the very bullets used in the murder. This revelation not only raises eyebrows but also hints at some deeper grievances or motivations fueling this violent act. It seems that not only is this shooter a common criminal, but also one who fancies himself a poet—or perhaps an amateur legal advisor. One can only imagine what goes through the minds of those who resort to violence as their form of expression.
