Tyler Robinson Arrested; – The individual suspected of assassinating Charlie Kirk has been identified.

Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old from Utah, is presently detained at the Utah County Jail. The charges under which he is being held include aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm, and obstruction of justice. As of now, Robinson has not been formally charged, and the initial charging documents are not available.

On Thursday, authorities released surveillance video footage, appealing to the public for assistance in identifying the potential suspect. This led to a family member of Robinson coming forward to confirm his identity. Robinson was apprehended approximately 33 hours after the assassination. Additional information regarding the suspect remains scarce as investigators continue their inquiries.

Kirk was engaged in a Q&A event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday when he was shot and killed. His remains have since been transported to his home state of Arizona, where a funeral is anticipated to take place next weekend.
