Before they opened fire on the conservative commentator, some believe that footage may have seen Charlie Kirk being assassinated on the university’s roof.
On September 10, Charlie Kirk was shot and died while attending a gathering at a college in Utah.
Even though there were many individuals at the event, investigators are still unsure of the identity of the gunman, and conjecture has started to creep in.
In a social media statement when the Turning Point founder’s health was still unknown, US President Donald Trump acknowledged Kirk’s passing.
Numerous recordings of the assassination from various angles have gone viral on social media as Kirk’s speech at Utah Valley University was held outside in front of a sizable crowd.
Authorities believe the fatal shot was fired from the top of the Losee Center, roughly 200 meters from where Kirk was speaking, and this has helped them better grasp the shooter’s possible location.
Alex Jones, a conspiracy theorist, posted two videos to his Twitter feed that might depict the shooter.
A figure on the roof appears to be moving in one of the videos, which depicts the aftermath of the gunfire.
In a second video, individuals are seen filming what looks to be a person on the roof before the event.
According to those who recorded the figure, the individual had been “running on the roof” and hopping around.
Authorities first acknowledged that they had detained two individuals in relation to the incident, but they have now claimed that they have freed them.
According to officials, the shooter is still at large and acted alone.
FBI Director Kash Patel took to Twitter and said, “The subject in custody has been released after an interrogation by law enforcement. Our investigation continues and we will continue to release information in interest of transparency.”
However, authorities said they have ‘no current ties’ to the shooting, thus another arrested individual was freed.
Political leaders have praised Kirk and denounced the gunman in the wake of the shooting.
Trump wrote on Truth Social: “The Great, and even Legendary, Charlie Kirk, is dead. No one understood or had the Heart of the Youth in the United States of America better than Charlie.”
“He was loved and admired by ALL, especially me, and now, he is no longer with us. Melania and my Sympathies go out to his beautiful wife Erika, and family. Charlie, we love you!”
Former president Joe Biden also commented, “There is no place in our country for this kind of violence. It must end now. Jill and I are praying for Charlie Kirk’s family and loved ones.”
