We’re beginning to learn more about the arrest of Luigi Mangione, the shooting suspect in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
On Monday morning, Mangione was detained at an Altoona, Pennsylvania, McDonald’s after an employee called in a tip to police after recognizing him from surveillance photos. When police arrived they found Mangione wearing a medical mask and working on his laptop.

Just after 9 a.m. on Monday, in a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pa., an employee spotted a man who looked like the person in the photos, and then called the police, who detained the man for questioning.
When Altoona police officers responded to a tip from a local McDonald’s, they found Luigi Mangione sitting at a table with a laptop and wearing a blue medical mask, according to a criminal complaint. An officer asked him to pull down his mask and recognized him as the suspect from the New York shooting. When an officer asked Mangione if he had been to New York recently, he “became quiet and started to shake,” police officers wrote in the complaint.
Officers would later find what they believe is the weapon used in the shooting inside Mangione’s backpack.
After he was placed into custody, Mangione was transported to the Altoona Police Department’s station, where officers located a black, 3D-printed pistol and a black silencer in his backpack, according to a criminal complaint.
Apparently, Mangione was caught while eating a McDonald’s hash brown, according to photos released by Pennsylvania State police.
