Luigi Mangione, 26, has been indicted by a New York grand jury on charges of first- and second-degree murder in the shooting death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Mangione is also charged with multiple counts of weapon possession.
Prosecutors allege he carried out a premeditated, targeted attack, killing Thompson, 50, on December 4 in Manhattan as he walked to an investors’ meeting.
Mangione fled the scene and was arrested days later in Pennsylvania, where authorities found a firearm suppressor, a mask, and a fake ID, The Guardian has reported.
If convicted, he faces 20 years to life in prison for first-degree murder.
