Police say the suspect who killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson can’t hide forever in NYC … ’cause security cameras recorded a person believed to be the shooter riding away from the murder scene.
Check out the new video, obtained by ABC News, showing a person — who cops say is the suspect — riding down a Manhattan street just minutes after Thompson was shot to death early Wednesday outside a hotel.
It appears the rider’s wearing a mask, riding down the street very quickly … but, cops say this is the person they’re looking for — blending in with the rest of the concrete jungle.
As we told you … Thompson was attacked just before 7 AM Wednesday — when the suspect walked up behind him, calmly pulled out a gun and fired multiple shots at Thompson.
Thompson was rushed to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Photos of a person of interest — who appears to be the suspected shooter — have been released by cops … giving people a look at the suspect’s face for the first time. The suspect appears to be wearing different clothes — it’s unclear when the images were captured.
Cops are actively investigating the shooting … raiding the New York International AYH-Hostel where the killer allegedly stayed before shooting Thompson.
We spoke to Matheus Taranto — a man visiting from Brazil and staying at the same hostel — who says he couldn’t access certain parts of his floor because cops were there. Taranto said he did not recognize the man in the suspect photos.
