What do we know about Charlie Kirk's assassin
The authorities previously announced that, until this morning, they received 130 tips from the public.
At the same time, the Department for Public Safety in Utah said that the suspect “has integrated well into the university environment” and “seems to be a student age”, according to the BBC.
At the same time, officials clarified that the two persons interviewed yesterday after the attack were considered “people of interest”, not suspect.
According to the same source, the suspect arrived on Campus yesterday at 11:52 – less than half an hour before Charlie Kirk was shot around 12:20.
The investigators said that he entered the campus, climbed the stairs, reached the roof and moved to the place where he fired.
After the attack, the man “moved to the other side of the building, jumped off the roof and fled from campus to a nearby neighborhood.” Later, he took refuge in an forested area, where the weapon was found that would have been used on the attack-a “rifle with high power.” The authorities did not specify where exactly that area is.
On the spot were discovered “Following the footwear, a palmar fingerprint and traces of forearm”, which are analyzed by investigators.
