New York City police believe the man who fatally shot a UnitedHealth top executive has left the city, Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said on Friday, as the hunt for the gunman passed the crucial 48-hour mark. Brian Thompson, 50, the CEO of UnitedHealth’s insurance unit, was shot in the back on Wednesday in what police described as a targeted attack. Police have released multiple photos of the suspect – who fled the scene, climbed on an electric bicycle and disappeared into Central Park – and have asked the public for help in tracking him down. Retired NYPD officer Jillian Snider joined LiveNOW from FOX to discuss.
