Bomb squad rush to Turning Point USA's Phoenix HQ as city prepares to host Charlie Kirk's funeral

A bomb squad rushed to Turning Point USA's headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona after a 'suspicious bag' was left outside, police said.

The mysterious bag was spotted outside the non-profit, founded by Charlie Kirk, on Wednesday morning, a spokesperson with the Phoenix Police Department told the Daily Mail.

A bomb robot arrived at the scene, along with a bomb squad official dressed in a Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) suit, a picture taken by Newsmax journalist John Huddy showed.

The street outside the building was cleared out of precaution. It is unclear what, if anything, was found inside the bag.

'There is not a threat associated with this incident. Updates will be given out as they become available,' authorities added.

Yellow police tape has been set up at the scene, along with Phoenix Police Department vehicles.

The frightening news comes a week after Kirk, 31, was fatally shot in the neck while speaking at an event at Utah Valley University.

A funeral for the late father-of-two is set to be held Sunday at State Farm Stadium, home to the Arizona Cardinals.

As if Sunday’s not already going to be hard enough for Erika, I’m sure the wicked Left isn’t going to let her bury her husband in peace.

I’m truly hoping that the President doesn’t attend. I’m sure his heart is so very heavy and thoughts swirl in his head.

I hope freepers are carrying. The left means business.
Keep your head on a swivel and pay close attention to what’s going on around you.
