NYPD Crime Scene Unit arrives at the scene where United Healthcare CEO was shot to death in Manhattan A van arrives near the Hilton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan where 50 year-old, Brian Thompson was murdered. (Julia Bonavita/Fox News Digital) NEW YORK, N.Y. – UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was fatally shot outside the Hilton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan on Wednesday morning, Fox News has confirmed.
A manhunt is underway as the suspect remains at-large.
Sources told Fox News that Thompson was shot in the chest and leg shortly before his UnitedHealthcare annual investors meeting.
The sources said the shooting was not a random incident.
Thompson was reportedly in town from Minnesota.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the former Democratic vice presidential candidate, reacted to news of Thompson's killing, decrying the shooting as "horrifying news and a terrible loss for the business and health care community in Minnesota," according to the New York Times.
Police try to revive Thompson, who was shot outside the Hilton Hotel in Midtown. | Fox News Without identifying the victim, the New York City Police Department told Fox News Digital that a 50-year-old man was shot in the chest outside the Hilton Hotel on 6th Ave. at approximately 6:46 a.m. and was transported to Mt. Sinai West hospital, where he was pronounced deceased. No arrests have been made, and the investigation is ongoing.
United healthcare has an estimated value of 562 BILLION dollars.
Of course it happened in NYC, the home of fair trials, low crime rates and an unbiased legal system…sarcasm.
It is going to be interesting to find out the motive for this shooting.
Denied healthcare for a loved one? That is a possibility. Or, it could be a personal issue.
Brian Thompson didn’t shoot himself.
The cameras weren’t working.
The guards were asleep.
The list of clients will not be made public.
I don’t think it was denied healthcare because people at that low level usually take it out on the people working in that office . I believe it was a personal hit, made to look like it was office related.

Interesting point.
“The sources said the shooting was not a random incident.”
somebody’s loved one died because UnitedHealthCare denied a medical procedure or medicine necessary to save their lives, and said, “F-it, i’ve got nothing to lose now, and a perfect revenge would also be a wakeup call to those who setup, condone, and profit by such a corrupt medical system that killed my loved one.”
Where’s Hunter?
Is he married? Divorced? He has children.
Probably not a good source, but the forum posts on FOX we’re talking about a Silencer being used.
Sounds like an assasination.
Sounds like an assasination.
If it was a hired hit, the shooter is most likely unalived already. If it was an angry patient or client the police will eventually find them but they will most likely go down swinging. IMHO
Does anybody have any idea if the CEO of a giant healthcare company had any enemies?
Just kidding lol.
Was this guy on Esptein’s Island visitation list and about to spill some beans on some folks?
Was he “laying pipe” where he shouldn’t have been?
The possiblities list is a llllooonnnnngggg one.
My bet is if they don't catch the shooter within the first 24 hours he will get away with it.
That would narrow it down to thousands of people. And god only knows the enemies they made during covid. Family of someone who died from the shot. Family of someone who was denied seeing a loved one and they dies alone. A tranny who missed his penis?
Who knows?
Apparently he was arriving at the Hilton to attend a meeting when a masked gunman assassinated him. Sounds like an inside job arranged by someone who knew his schedule. There are many surveillance cameras in that area of Manhattan. Few felonies are solved these days in NYC. Perhaps there are still a few veteran NYPD detectives still on the job who may solve this high profile case. Also sounds like a Law and Order plot. Suspect there is much more to this story.
Is there an accurate account of the number of illegals they had to push out of the way to get this guy into the ER?
This was a hit.
The bullet removal has been deemed not medically necessary. Claim denied.
