Video shows CEO’s killer walking NYC streets before shooting

Surveillance footage obtained by Fox News Digital Wednesday morning from a deli near the scene where the United Healthcare CEO was shot and killed shows the gunman walking toward the hotel where he was shot that morning.

The video shows a person of the same build and wearing the same clothing as the suspect walking down 55th Street toward the Hilton Hotel where Brian Thompson was shot at 6:19 a.m.

Surveillance video was taken at Stage Star Deli less than an hour before Thompson was shot just before 7 a.m.

Surveillance video shows the suspect wearing black clothing and carrying a gray backpack walking along 55th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues. In one of the videos, the suspect can be seen briefly stopping in front of a pile of trash, then bending over before moving forward.

The suspect also used false identification to check into a New York City hostel before the brazen execution-style killing, police officials told Fox News.

Officials said the suspect used a fake ID and paid in cash.

Pictured is Brian Thompson, who served as United Healthcare's chief executive officer until he was gunned down in New York City in December 2024.
