Reading Time: 3 minutes

On Wednesday, conservative activist Charlie Kirk was gunned down during a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University.

Two men were arrested at the scene, but both were later released.

It’s nearly impossible to imagine that a gunman could escape such a crowded scene, but now a frantic search is underway, and the shooter responsible for Kirk’s death is still at large.

Earlier today, the FBI asked for the public’s help in apprehending their person of interest.

FBI reveals new details regarding person of interest in Charlie Kirk shooting

The Salt Lake City branch of the FBI posted a photo of the person they’re seeking for questioning in connection with the shooting.

“We are asking for the public’s help identifying this person of interest in connection with the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University,” the agency wrote on X and Instagram, alongside two grainy security camera photos.

The images appear to show a man in a hat and sunglasses climbing a flight of stairs.

The location of the photos has not been revealed, but they were likely taken on the campus where Kirk was killed.

In a separate post, the agency wrote that it is “offering a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to the identification and arrest of the individual(s) responsible for the murder of Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.”

Onlookers have reported seeing a person running across the rooftop of a nearby building in the moments after the shooting, but those statements have yet to be corroborated by law enforcement.

Social media users believe the person of interest’s shirt is emblazoned with an American flag and a bald eagle, alongside text reading, “The land of the free and the home of the brave.”

That also has not been confirmed by law enforcement.

Authorities say they discovered a high-powered bolt-action rifle in a nearby wooded area in the aftermath of the shooting.

President Donald Trump addressed the situation this afternoon as he left the White House to attend tonight’s New York Yankees-Detroit Tigers game.

He stated that law enforcement officials are “making great strides” in their investigation.

“They’re very talented people,” Trump said. “Let’s see what happens. We hope they can do it soon.”

He also revealed plans to attend Kirk’s funeral.

“They’ve asked me to go, and I think have an obligation to be there,” Trump said, according to Yahoo News.

Earlier today, Trump revealed that he intends to award Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom posthumously.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
