UnitedHealthcare CEO Shooting Suspect Lookalike Contest Held In New York City [View all]

After New York police released a photo of a "person of interest" in the killing of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson on Thursday, many people on social media remarked on the individual's apparent physical resemblance to the actor.
