Charlie Kirk was on a speaking tour and had no clue that his first stop at Utah Valley University would be his last.
Videos show that Kirk was going back and forth with a student about mass shootings and transgender people when he was shot in the neck and likely passed away from the massive amounts of blood loss.
In the hours since his death, more information continues to pour out.
The suspected shooter, who remains at large, used a bolt-action rifle that was found in a wooded area after he fled from the building from which he shot.
The rifle and three unfired rounds of ammunition inside it also had a message on them.
The Wall Street Journal reported that they were engraved with expressions of transgender and antifascist ideology.
Charlie Kirk Was Shot From 200 Yards Away
Charlie Kirk was struck in the neck by a single shot fired from a distance of around 200 yards right after he answered a question about transgender individuals and mass shootings. Investigators recovered the weapon they believe was used to kill Kirk, as well as the suspect’s footprints and palm prints.
The father of two and Turning Point USA founder was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
Two people taken into custody on Wednesday were questioned and later released.
A manhunt for the shooter is ongoing for the shooter who is reportedly of college age, as stated by the FBI.
They are offering a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to the identification and arrest of the suspected criminal.
