New York | A sprawling search with police officers, dogs and drones spread across New York on Wednesday (Thursday AEDT) after the CEO of UnitedHealthcare was fatally shot outside a Manhattan hotel in what police called a bold assassination.
Brian Thompson, 50, the leader of one of the largest US companies, was shot just before dawn on West 54th Street near the New York Hilton Midtown, where his firm was holding its annual investor day.
