The warrant on murder and other charges is a step that could help expedite his extradition from Pennsylvania.
In court papers made public Tuesday, a New York City police detective reiterated key findings in the investigation he said tied Mangione to the killing, including surveillance footage and a fake ID he used to check into a Manhattan hostel on Nov. 24.
Police officers in Altoona, Pennsylvania, found that ID when they arrested Mangione on Monday.
Mangione is being held without bail in Pennsylvania on charges of possession of an unlicensed firearm, forgery and providing false identification to police. Late Monday, Manhattan prosecutors charged him with five counts, including murder, criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of a forged instrument.
Mangione doesn’t yet have a lawyer who can speak on his behalf, court officials said.
