Overview

  • Investigators say a single shot was fired from a nearby rooftop roughly 180 meters away during an outdoor Q&A at Utah Valley University with about 3,000 attendees.
  • The FBI says it recovered a high‑power bolt‑action rifle with potential fingerprints in a wooded area and sent it for forensic analysis.
  • Agents released surveillance images of a person of interest who appears college‑age and urged the public to submit tips to 1‑800-CALL-FBI.
  • Two people detained early in the probe were released without charges after an initial custody announcement was corrected, and the suspect remains at large.
  • President Donald Trump confirmed Kirk’s death, ordered flags at half‑staff and vowed to pursue those responsible, as Utah’s governor labeled the killing a political assassination and the campus closed and canceled classes.
