After an exhaustive and traumatic week, the FBI has made an arrest in the murder of a Christian conservative leader in Utah on Wednesday afternoon.
Kirk was on a tour of college campuses and was just starting his typical Q&A with audience members when the shot rang out and instantly killed the popular radio and podcast host.
Charlie Kirk was in Tuscaloosa in 2021 and spoke on the campus of the University of Alabama.
According to NBC News, the suspect is Tyler Robinson. He is 22 years old and was turned in by his father.
NBC also reported that Robinson's father "held him at his home until US Marshals could arrive and take him into custody".
The shooter's father is reportedly a minister in Utah.
