Utah Man Charged With Murder In Charlie Kirk Shooting
4 days ago
The man accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk was being held without bail Friday at the Utah County jail. A court affidavit says Tyler Robinson, 22, was arrested on suspicion of aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily harm, and obstruction of justice. Formal charges are expected early next week. Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said Robinson had become “more political” recently and had indicated to a family friend afterwards that he was responsible for the assassination. Cox cited as evidence the engravings on bullets found in a rifle, and chatting app messages that a roommate shared with law enforcement.
