Authorities have not revealed a motive, but bullet casings at the scene were found with the words “deny”, “depose” and “defend” written on them — a possible reference to the book “Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don’t Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It” — leading to speculation that the killing may have come out of resentment for a denied claim.Police said Friday that the suspect had likely left New York for Atlanta, Georgia, as investigators continue searching for evidence. The suspect is believed to have arrived in New York from Atlanta before the attack.Additional surveillance video taken between Midtown and the Upper West Side continues to emerge.
