Charlie Kirk, a right-wing political activist, died on Wednesday after being shot in Utah, as confirmed by US President Donald Trump. Kirk was 31.
A founder of the conservative group Turning Point USA was addressing gun violence moments before being shot and killed at an event on campus at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.
Charlie Kirk was shot dead while answering a question on transgender mass shootings in the United States of America.
An audience member had a question to Kirk: How many transgender Americans have been mass shooters in the past 10 years? a CNN report said.
“Too many,” Kirk answered.
The same audience member told Kirk that the figure is five, and went on to inquire whether he was aware of the number of mass shooters that there have been within the past 10 years in the US.
Where or not to count gang violence? Kirk asked.
One second later, there was a gunshot. The disturbing videos posted on the Internet include Kirk falling onstage with blood flowing down his neck.
Trump announced the death on social media, and he commended the 31-year-old Kirk, co-founder and CEO of the youth group Turning Point USA, saying it was great and even legendary.
Charlie Trump, the President of the United States of America, wrote in his Truth Social account that no one, or had the Heart of the Youth, better than he did.
FBI Director Kash Patel affirmed that the suspect of the shooting of Charlie Kirk was first taken into custody, but the authorities released the suspect after interrogation
On September 10, Kirk was an activist and founder of the Turning Point USA and was shot and killed during a speech at Utah Valley University (UVU), Orem, Utah. He was in his American Comeback Tour where he was having a Q&A session through a pop-up tent when the attack took place.
Later on, Kash Patel indicated that the FBI arrested the assassin when he was running away, though he never gave the name of the suspect.
