FBI officials and local officials in Utah are delivering a press Conference with updates on the assassination of Turning Point USA co-founder and political commentator Charlie Kirk as a manhunt for the shooter continues.
On Wednesday, Charlie Kirk was shot in the neck while he was speaking at Utah Valley University.
A graphic video of the incident showed Kirk being hit in the neck before falling to the ground.
The 31-year-old political commentator, activist, and co-founder of Turning Point USA tragically passed away in the hospital hours after the terrorist attack during a stop on his “Prove Me Wrong” tour at the college campus. He is survived by his wife, Erika, and two children, a three-year-old girl and a one-year-old boy.
Authorities arrested a suspect, claiming to have shot Kirk, in the crowd immediately after the shooting, but it was later revealed that he was not the gunman. The suspect shot Kirk from a building roughly 200 yards away from where he was speaking. FBI Director Kash Patel announced on Wednesday evening that they arrested another suspect, but the FBI did not identify the individual. He was later released by the FBI after an interrogation.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, a joint press release was issued late Wednesday night by the Utah Department of Public Safety and the FBI that offered the latest public information and appealed for help after two suspects were questioned and released.
The sole shot fired that hit Kirk in the neck and killed him is believed to have been fired from the rooftop of the Losee Center, about 200 yards across from the courtyard where he was speaking to about 3,000 students at Utah Valley University.
It looked like a professional job.
