More Details Emerge on Charlie Kirk Shooting Suspect
Tyler Robinson, 22, faces charges including aggravated murder with evidence showing ideological motives and premeditation, as Utah officials prepare to seek the death penalty.
- Conservative activist Charlie Kirk was killed by a single rifle bullet fired from a rooftop during a Wednesday outdoor gathering held at a college in Orem, Utah.
- The shooting took place against a backdrop of ongoing political unrest in the United States, with suspect Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old student at Dixie Technical College, arrested Thursday night after relatives informed authorities of his role in the incident.
- Robinson was captured following a 33-hour manhunt aided by surveillance footage showing a person of interest fleeing across the rooftop, and police recovered a bolt-action rifle matching comments linked to Robinson.
- Utah Governor Spencer Cox stated, “We got him,” confirmed Robinson acted alone, and announced formal charges, including aggravated murder, will be filed next week with officials seeking the death penalty.
- Kirk’s killing sparked widespread condemnation across the political spectrum, with memorial plans for September 21 in Glendale, Arizona, and experts urging less ideological finger-pointing to reduce violence.
