The FBI and Utah authorities have released new footage showing the suspect wanted in connection with the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk fleeing the scene.
In the video, a figure can be seen running across a rooftop, reportedly the location from which the fatal shot was fired, before dropping several feet to the ground and disappearing into a nearby wooded area, Caliber.Az reports per foreign media.
Police have also released fresh images of a “person of interest,” described as wearing a black T-shirt featuring a US flag and Converse shoes. Authorities are appealing for information and have offered a $100,000 reward to anyone who can assist with the investigation.
Officials say they are gathering evidence to potentially pursue the death penalty against the suspect, following the discovery of a high-powered rifle near the scene.
Meanwhile, US Vice-President JD Vance accompanied Kirk’s body as it was transported back to Phoenix, Arizona.
The investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue their search for the gunman.
Kirk, 31, a close ally of US President Donald Trump, was shot and killed while speaking on campus.
He co-founded Turning Point USA, a student organisation established in 2012 that aims to spread conservative ideals at liberal-leaning US colleges.
