Newly-released surveillance footage shows the gunman who fatally shot Charlie Kirk jumping off the roof and escaping in the moments after opening fire.

In the footage, the suspect could be seen running across the roof of the Lossee Center at Utah Valley University. Once he reaches the edge, the suspect could then be seen climbing down and jumping onto the ground - leaving behind a palm print and a shoe print. He then runs from the building and starts strolling with the crowd as he casually walks toward a street at the edge of campus, where police say he ducked into a wooded area, from... Authorities have intensified their investigation into the assassination of conservative figure Charlie Kirk, who was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025. Video evidence shows a shadowy figure—believed to be the gunman—perched on the rooftop of the Losee Center just before and after the fatal shot. Experts say the precision of the attack suggests advanced firearms training and careful planning, making the investigation more complex.

Kirk was shot in the neck while answering a question under a white tent in front of a crowd of approximately 3,000 attendees. Eyewitness footage captures the moment of the single gunshot, followed by panic as the audience screamed and fled. Blood poured from Kirk’s wound, and despite rapid medical evacuation, he was pronounced dead. Security surrounding Kirk was tight, but event-wide measures were minimal, raising questions about broader safety protocols. The FBI quickly detained and released two suspects, confirming that neither was responsible. Director Kash Patel assured the public that the investigation remains ongoing.

Law enforcement experts note that the shooter’s skill and execution suggest prior experience and a calculated escape, possibly reducing the trail of evidence left behind. Witnesses at the scene recounted the horror and confusion. Attendee Skyler Baird, standing just 15 feet away, said he immediately recognized the sound of a gunshot. Others, like Jeremy King, initially thought it might have been part of the event until Kirk collapsed. Many attendees dropped to the ground in fear of further violence. In the aftermath, tributes flooded in from across the political spectrum.

Former President Trump condemned the assassination, calling Kirk a “martyr” and ordering flags to be flown at half-staff nationwide. Vice President JD Vance reposted Trump’s remarks and offered his prayers, joining in mourning Kirk’s legacy. Footage has emerged showing a figure running across a roof in the wake of the shooting of conservative political commentator Charlie Kirk in Utah. The clip, recorded by Tanner Maxwell and distributed by Reuters, shows a person on a rooftop at Utah Valley University’s Losee Center appearing to flee as the crowd at Kirk’s “American Comeback Tour” event... Kirk, 31, one of the most influential figures in the MAGA movement, died after being shot during a talk on campus on Wednesday, with authorities still searching for the suspect. “Right when I hit the camera is when I heard the shot go off,” Maxwell told The Washington Post.

He also told The New York Times that he only spotted the figure, who appears to be in dark clothing, after reviewing his footage at home. “It was scary,” Maxwell said of the shooting, which left the Turning Point USA founder dead.
