Ivy League graduate Luigi Mangione charged with UnitedHealthcare boss NYC murder

New York prosecutors have filed a murder charge against an Ivy League graduate suspected of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, who was gunned down outside a Manhattan hotel last Wednesday.

Luigi Mangione, 26, was apprehended after a quick-thinking McDonald’s employee in Altoona, Pennsylvania, allegedly recognised him from a surveillance photo.

Police said he was found with a gun believed to be of the same 3D-printed kind used in the killing of Thompson, as well as a fake New Jersey driver's licence and three-page handwritten manifesto in his backpack, which police said suggested anger with corporate America.

Hear details of the arrest and NYPD manhunt.

In part two, London’s biggest new road infrastructure project will be open for drivers to use soon - but there’s a catch, it won’t be free.

The £2 billion Silvertown Tunnel in east London, nearly a mile long, is planned to ease congestion for vehicles crossing the Thames.

But when it opens in the spring, motorists will have to pay up along with those also using the 130-year-old Blackwall Tunnel under the river, as part of new tolls levied by Transport for London.

We’re joined by the The London Standard’s transport editor Ross Lydall.
