Police appear to be closing in on the identity of the man suspected of gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Midtown Manhattan, sources told ABC News.
Authorities on Thursday released images of the suspect taken from a surveillance camera at the HI New York City Hostel at West 103rd Street on the Upper West Side, where it appears the suspect shared a room with two other men, according to police sources.
Detectives canvassed other hostels in the area and showed people the suspect's picture, sources said. Police have determined the suspect checked into an Upper West Side hostel using a New Jersey license that isn’t his, police sources told ABC News.
The gunman shot Thompson at close range on Wednesday morning outside a Hilton Hotel where the CEO was attending a conference.
The "brazen, targeted attack" was "premeditated," NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said.
Bullet casings found at the scene had the words "deny," "defend" and "depose" written on them, police sources said.
The motive remains unknown, police said.

If the victim were Joe Schmoe, would NYPD be devoting the same resources to the investigation?
You don’t have to answer. I already know.

Yeah, they’ll get him. You’re about to do an assassination and you first have to stop for a latte?? Is that how Gen Xers do assassinations now? Too much Grand Theft Auto I’d say.
