Charlie Kirk Murder Suspect Captured After Manhunt
Utah authorities announced the powerful end of a two-day manhunt after Charlie Kirk murder suspect Tyler Robinson was captured late Thursday. Governor Spencer Cox confirmed the arrest, saying “We got him,” as the news calmed a wave of national tension over rising political violence.
Robinson, who allegedly killed conservative activist Charlie Kirk during an event at Utah Valley University, reportedly hinted at the crime to a family friend, prompting a swift law-enforcement response. Officials said the suspect was taken into custody about 33 hours after the high-profile shooting.
Kirk, a close Trump ally, was shot onstage at the outdoor amphitheatre, sparking bipartisan condemnation of political violence. Leaders across the spectrum labeled the attack an assault on democracy and ideals.
Investigators recovered a bolt-action rifle believed to be used in the crime, matching online messages Robinson allegedly posted about hiding the weapon. Forensics also found ammunition with cryptic inscriptions.
Charlie Kirk, co-founder of Turning Point USA, had been touring campuses as part of an “American Comeback Tour.” The arrest marks a dramatic turn in a case that ignited intense speculation and political debate nationwide.arynews
