Pharma exec's New Jersey home torched in possible arson attack as fears grow for corporate bigwigs' safety
Police are investigating a possible arson attempt at the New Jersey home of a Bayer executive amid growing fears for the safety of pharma bigwigs following the assignation of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Authorities descended on the home in Madison, about 15 miles west of Newark, to investigate a fire that broke out about 7.30am on March 4.
While the fire was extinguished without any substantial property damage or injury to the occupants, the investigation has escalated to include multiple local and stage agencies, as well as the transit police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
It comes after the arrest of Luigi Mangione, 26, on charges of allegedly murdering Thompson, 50. The high profile case led to a bizarre wave of support from the accused killer's devoted fans - including over $720,000 in donations to his legal defense fund.
Nicole Hayes, a spokesman for the German pharmaceutical company, confirmed that the incident took place at the 'private home of one of Bayer's U.S. executives' and stated that the 'family is safe and unharmed.
'The safety and security of our employees are of utmost importance to Bayer,' Hayes told the Daily Record.
'The incident is under active investigation. The company is cooperating fully with the investigation. We appreciate the quick response of local law enforcement.'
Bayer has been lobbying US lawmakers for stronger legal protections over the past year, with Reuters reporting last week that the company threatened to stop selling popular products like Roundup.
