Authorities are now reporting they’ve identified and taken into custody the assassin who shot Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University (UVU).
The suspect responsible for the shot that took conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s life on Wednesday has been named as Tyler Robinson, 22 years old.
Earlier on Friday, President Donald Trump said on Fox and Friends, “with a high degree of certainty,” that the suspect was caught, praising law enforcement for their investigative work.
“A family member of Tyler Robinson reached out to a family friend, who contacted the Washington County Sherriff’s Office with information that Robinson had confessed to them or implied that he had committed the incident,” Cox reported, explaining that the information was relayed to Utah law enforcement and the FBI.
Robinson was identified arriving at the college campus in a grey Dodge Challenger at about 8:29 A.M. on Wednesday. The family member who contacted authorities confirmed Robinson drove this model of car.
The governor said that the family member described a gathering that Robinson attended, where he mentioned that Charlie Kirk would be present at an event on the UVU campus.
“They talked about why they didn’t like [Kirk] and the viewpoints that he had,” Cox relayed. “The family member also stated Kirk was full of hate and spreading hate.”
Investigators also interviewed Robinson’s roommate, who revealed Reddit messages from the suspect “stating a need to retrieve a rifle from a drop point,” as well as detailing where the rifle would be left.
The messages confirmed Robinson changed clothing between the time he arrived on campus and the time he fled the scene, which explains why he was earlier seen in shorts and a maroon shirt, while the images released show him wearing pants and a black shirt.

Read what the Democrat party cultist said about why he murdered Kirk
Democrats are directly culpable for the murder of Kirk. This isn’t “just politics”. Their vile lying slanderous hate filled rhetoric directed at everyone who has a different opinion then their cult has now lead to murder. They are guilty and must be held accountable by the people of the US for their inexcusable behavior.
They are absolute hypocrites. Disagreeing with someone is not being hateful. They are the ones full of hate and spreading hate, and their actions and their re-actions to murder are plain proof.
I kept mixing up Charlie Kirk with Kirk Cameron.
Anyone else do that?
Perhaps hate speech should be banned.
His expression in the mugshot says to me he’s not scared, has no remorse and is glad he did it.

I have heard from other news sources there were others involved. Not a lone wolf in my opinion.
Waterboard him thoroughly.
Wait’ll he meets Bubba...
You are probably being facetious
But who decides what hate speech is?
I might ban rhetoric against Charlie Kirk
But if my enemies have power they could ban my hateful so called statements about the evil of homosexuality.
We have laws against slander and fraud and threats of violence which are objectively proveable.
He should go to Gitmo with the other terrorists. This was domestic terrorism.
Kirk Cameron is hiding in his wife’s closet.
Sounds like mama is an AWFL.
I was worried last night after the press conference. Seemed they didn’t have a lot of clues.
I doubt that little psycho will be put in general population.....and if given the death penalty he’ll be in cell all by himself probably for 23 hours a day.
Lefty actblue cockroaches on Faux are frantically trying to paint Tyler as MAGA.
By their lights, a guy who should have been in the crowd cheering, was instead, on a roof shooting.
It makes no sense to anyone but them.
They’re afraid.
(Man, Fox has really gone to the dogs just sayin’)
