(NEW YORK) — Luigi Mangione, who is accused of second-degree murder for allegedly gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City, could face additional charges, according to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.<\/p>\n

Asked why Mangione was charged with second-degree murder, Bragg told ABC News that prosecutors wanted to bring charges quickly and first-degree murder “has a number of delineated circumstances.”<\/p>\n

“Murder 2 is the intentional killing of a person, punishable by 25 years to life under New York law,” Bragg said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“Murder 1 has a number of delineated circumstances, including, for example, a serial murder, murder of a witness, murder of a police officer,” he explained.<\/p>\n

“As we learn more about motives and other things like that … there may be additional charges,” Bragg said.<\/p>\n

Mangione is also charged in New York with criminal possession of a forged instrument and several counts of criminal possession of a weapon.<\/p>\n

Mangione, a 26-year-old Ivy League graduate, is accused of shooting Thompson outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel on Dec. 4 while the CEO was heading to an investors conference.<\/p>\n

Thompson\u2019s murder ignited online anger at the health insurance industry and some people online have celebrated the suspect.<\/p>\n

“Celebrating murder is abhorrent,” Bragg said. “I sit across the table from families who’ve had a loved one killed. And to think of people celebrating that … is beyond comprehension to me.”<\/p>\n

“What I would say to members of the public … [who are] celebrating this and maybe contemplating other action: We will be vigilant and we will hold people accountable,” Bragg said.<\/p>\n

The ghost gun allegedly in Mangione’s possession when he was arrested has been matched to three shell casings recovered at the murder scene, according to the NYPD.<\/p>\n

Bragg, who has focused on cracking down on ghost guns during his time as DA, stressed, “They are lethal in the same way as a traditional gun. What is so scary about them is you can buy a 3D printer and you can print them right from your kitchen table.”<\/p>\n

“[It\u2019s] something we\u2019re seeing more and more in use,” he said.<\/p>\n

Fingerprints recovered from a water bottle and a Kind bar near the crime scene have also been matched to Mangione, police said.<\/p>\n

Mangione was apprehended in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on Monday after nearly one week on the run. He’s also facing charges in Pennsylvania, including allegedly possessing an untraceable ghost gun.<\/p>\n

Mangione plans to challenge his extradition to New York.<\/p>\n

The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office said it will seek a governor’s warrant to try to force Mangione’s extradition. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a statement that she’ll sign a request for the governor’s warrant “to ensure this individual is tried and held accountable.”<\/p>\n

Bragg said, “We will get the defendant here and bring him to justice through our court proceeding.”<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re prepared to go forward,” he said. “We\u2019re on the path to accountability and justice.”<\/p>\n
