Crowd screams at Charlie Kirk's 'shooter' as he's dragged away by police (video) [Wrong guy]
The Daily Mail ^ | 09/10/2025 | WILL POTTER, US SENIOR NEWS REPORTER

Furious witnesses to the shooting of Charlie Kirk screamed and hurled abuse at the suspected shooter as he was dragged away by police.

'How dare you, you f***ing monster!' one yelled as the suspect, an elderly man who has not been identified, was walked away with his trousers down.

Witness Justin Hickens told NBC News that he saw Kirk shot in the neck, and then saw 'a bunch of blood come out of Charlie.'

'I saw his body kind of kick back and go limp, and everybody dropped to the ground,' he said.

'I kind of turned around and all of a sudden I saw officers walking with this very elderly gentleman with white hair,' Hickens said.

'They had him arrested, they had him on his knees and he was screaming about his rights and all that stuff. They cuffed him and put him away.'

UVU officials said said the shot was fired from the top of the Losee Center, about 200 yards away from where Kirk was sitting.

Officials said that Kirk has been left in 'critical condition', and a source familiar with Kirk's condition told Daily Mail that 'doctors are still working on him' after the conservative influencer was raced to hospital.

The media said it was from a rooftop 200 yards away and they listed the building top in the report.

Which outlet is reporting a pistol shot from the crowd.

API,CNN,FOX all saying rooftop and the old white guy is’m not the shooter who is still at large.

An Appleseed clinic will teach you to make 200yd shots from a sitting position with an AR with iron sights and a sling.

"Could be a tenured professor... but more likely a holdover from the SDS days I suppose."

Hopefully we will find the facts out soon. They are now saying he wasn't the shooter. This crap always bugs me, because it's so common. So many sources coming up with different reports. You can't believe any of them until the true facts come out, and even then, facts are blurred.

Right. It sounds more like a sniper type shot.

I feel like they killed Breitbart and Scalia too.

They were murdered by Obama's people. It is assured since Scalia was suffocated with pillows and his body was cremated within a few days. A US Supreme Court Justice dead and no autopsy! He was definitely murdered.

Yes, you can and you did.

With the proper equipment just about anybody can make a 200 yard shot.

Deer hunting in North Dakota, -25F, I took out a large doe at 250 yards with a single offhand shot using a 243 Win cartridge.

The old guy could be a maintenance guy too.

Like someone said, if this was done by a bunch of activist types a shooter could easily plant friends to point fingers at random and keep the security police distracted.

Yes, the whole thing stunk to high heaven, and Breitbart was like 42 years old and just dropped dead walking across the street. I know that’s not completely unheard of but it was pretty damn fishy also. Specially since it happened pretty much right after he sank Anthony Weiner For his underage BS while married to whatever the hell her name was

"Right. It sounds more like a sniper type shot."

Fox News reported quite a while before Charlie Kirk passed that the shot came from a building 200 yards away. I don't know where they got their info from.

Really it was just an observation. I don’t pretend to have many solutions, except to arm ourselves and keep our heads aon a swivel.

Antifa/Trantifa created a diversion so the attention was on the wrong man and allowed the shooter to get away.

Regarding the home confinement sentence - Rand Paul’s attacker was his neighbor! Senator Paul was operating a lawn mower, was wearing hearing protection, and was attacked from behind, by a former emergency doctor, or all things.
