Overview

• A public memorial for Charlie Kirk is scheduled Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, with President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and other senior officials slated to speak.
• The U.S. Secret Service says an armed man posing as law enforcement was detained at the stadium Friday; local authorities later announced charges for impersonating an officer and carrying a weapon in a prohibited place.
• Court filings and reporting identify the suspect as 42-year-old Joshua Runkles, who was booked in Maricopa County and, in some reports, released on bond under supervision as the investigation continues.
• Federal and local agencies have deployed extensive measures for the event, including TSA-style screening and large multi‑agency deployments, with officials preparing for tens of thousands of attendees and monitoring additional threats.
• Separately, Utah prosecutors have charged 22-year-old Tyler Robinson with aggravated murder in Kirk’s killing and say they will seek the death penalty, while Erika Kirk has been named to lead Turning Point USA and will address the service.
