The UnitedHealthcare CEO who was fatally shot outside a Midtown hotel was living separately from his wife for years, according to a report.

Brian Thompson, 50, and his wife Paulette “Pauley” Thompson, had been living in separate homes less than a mile apart from each other in Maple Grove, Minnesota, for years, The Wall Street Journal reports.

Thompson was shot and killed Wednesday morning on his way to an investor conference at the Hilton Hotel on Sixth Avenue. The killer is still on the run, and the motive is unknown, though a former FBI agent told NBC News that all signs point to that the shooter had a personal vendetta against the victim.
