Luigi Mangione Charged with the Murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson

The charge came hours after Mangione was arraigned in Pennsylvania

New York prosecutors on Monday charged Ivy League grad Luigi Mangione with the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, court records show.

The charge came hours after Mangione, 26, was arraigned in a Pennsylvania courtroom on gun and other charges related to his arrest earlier Monday at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania, after a worker there told police he was acting suspiciously.

Mangione was charged by the Manhattan district attorney’s office with second-degree murder, criminal possession of a loaded firearm, possession of a silencer and possession of a forged instrument in state court in Manhattan on Monday night, according to a court record.
