The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is calling for the public to help them catch Charlie Kirk’s shooter.

On Wednesday (10 September) afternoon, the Donald Trump ally, 31, was hit by a single shot to the neck during a Q&A at a Utah Valley University (UVU) event.

Kirk, a right-wing influencer, was taken to hospital by his security team where he was declared dead.

In a press conference yesterday (11 September), the FBI and Utah Department of Public Safety said they ‘were able to track the movements of the shooter starting at 11:52 am’.

The suspected shooter climbed up onto the roof of a nearby building and ‘fled off of the campus and into a neighbourhood’ after the incident.

Commissioner Beau Mason said the male suspect ‘appears to be of college age’ and that ‘we are doing everything we can to find him’.

FBI agent Robert Bohls also revealed that they had recovered ‘what we believe to be the weapon’ used in the shooting – a high powered bolt action rifle.

“He left a gun and ammunition in a wooded area near the university.

“Trace evidence collected from the rooftop scene included shoe impressions, a forearm imprint, and a palm print.”

They urged ‘Anyone with information in this case should call the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI or visit fbi.gov/utahvalleyshooting’.

President Donald Trump said the husband and father-of-two was ‘loved and admired by all, especially me’.

In a video message, which some thought was AI-generated, the Republican leader, 79, said it was ‘a dark moment for America’.

“I am filled with grief and anger at the heinous assassination of Charlie Kirk,” he added.

“He inspired millions and tonight all who knew him and loved him are united in shock and horror.”
