Police in Altoona, Pennsylvania, have detained a man for questioning in connection with last week's shooting and killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City. The individual was apprehended at a local McDonald's after customers reported his suspicious behavior. He was found with a gun similar to the one used in the murder, along with a suppressor and several fake IDs, including a fake New Jersey ID. Authorities say he may have been traveling by bus and that video evidence supports his connection to Thompson's assassination.
