URGENT ALERT: FBI Releases Photos of Person of Interest in Fatal Shooting of Conservative Icon Charlie Kirk – Help Identify Now! (Photos)
The hunt is on, and every second counts. Just hours after the brazen assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, the FBI’s Salt Lake City division dropped two grainy but crucial photos of a person of interest—a young man in a dark hoodie and jeans, caught on camera near the scene. Authorities are pleading for the public’s help to ID this guy, believed to be tied to the rooftop sniper who took down one of conservatism’s brightest lights during his American Comeback Tour stop yesterday.

If you recognize him, call 1-800-CALL-FBI or hit up fbi.gov/UtahValleyShooting with tips—digital media, videos, anything that could crack this wide open.
Kirk, only 31, was a force—husband, father, unyielding patriot who rallied millions of young Americans to embrace freedom, faith, and facts over leftist indoctrination. Shot in the neck from an adjacent building’s rooftop, he didn’t stand a chance, leaving a void that’s got the nation reeling on this somber 9/11 anniversary.
The shooter, described as college-age and blending into the student crowd, fired once and bolted on foot, ditching an older Mauser .30-06 bolt-action rifle in nearby woods. That gun? Wrapped in a towel, with cartridges engraved with transgender and ANTIFA slogans—clear signs of the radical hatred that’s been brewing unchecked.
Investigators aren’t messing around; they’ve got footwear impressions, a palm print, and forearm imprints from the site, all feeding into a manhunt co-led by the FBI and Utah’s State Bureau of Investigation. The tip line’s lighting up, and with good reason—this echoes past incidents where far-left extremists left similar ideological marks on their ammo, a twisted signature of the violence they’ve normalized. President Trump nailed it in his Oval Office address, calling the attack “heinous” and linking it to the divisive poison that’s turned debate into deadly force. On a day we remember unity against terror, it’s a gut punch that homegrown radicals are the new threat.
