Overview

• An active manhunt continues for the gunman who killed Charlie Kirk during a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University.
• Officials said the fatal shot was fired from the roof of UVU’s Losee Center, roughly 200 feet from where Kirk was speaking.
• George Zinn, 71, was detained in the immediate chaos and booked on obstruction, but police later said he did not match the shooter description after video captured an officer saying, “He said he shot him, but I don’t know.”
• The FBI questioned a separate person of interest and released the individual after interrogation, with authorities reporting no current ties to the shooting.
• Zinn is a longtime local political activist known to law enforcement, with numerous prior arrests including a 2013 bomb-threat case that resulted in a plea and court-ordered mental health treatment.
