OREM, Utah — Authorities released a video Thursday evening of a suspect running across the roof of a building at Utah Valley University and jumping to the ground as the search for a gunman... The man was described as wearing blue jeans, a baseball cap with a triangle, Converse tennis shoes and a dark long-sleeved T-shirt with what appears to be American flag and an eagle. “All identifying features that we’re hoping the public can help us identify and lead us to this suspect,” said Beau Mason, commissioner of the Utah Department of Public Safety at an evening news conference. Mason earlier told MSNBC that authorities “have no idea” where Kirk’s killer is. Earlier in the day, authorities unveiled grainy photos of the same man captured on security camera video clenching his fists and walking up a stairway. They urged the public to report any information that could lead to his identification or arrest.

Authorities say "distinctive clothing" may help identify the shooter. Officials released new video of the person of interest in conservative influencer Charlie Kirk's killing, showing the suspected gunman climbing down from the roof of a building on the campus of Utah Valley University... The video was played during a news conference Thursday evening with state and federal officials. Utah Gov.

He said state officials are already moving to pursue the death penalty if the case goes to trial. OREM, Utah (AP) — The sniper who assassinated Charlie Kirk is believed to have jumped off a roof and fled into a neighborhood after firing one shot and has not been identified, authorities said... The shooter appeared to be of college age and blended in on the university campus where Kirk was killed Wednesday, said Beau Mason, the commissioner of the Utah Department of Public Safety. It remained unclear how far the shooter has traveled, though law enforcement officials say nearby woods where the rifle was found have been secured. Even as law enforcement officials revealed new details about an attack they called targeted, much remained unclear nearly 24 hours later, including the sniper's identity, motive and whereabouts. Two people detained Wednesday were released after neither was determined to be connected to the shooting, but by Thursday officials expressed confidence they had tracked the shooter's movements on campus in the run-up to...

Later Thursday, the FBI released two photos of a person of interest in connection with the shooting as investigators appealed to the public for information. The photos show a person wearing a hat, sunglasses and a long-sleeve black shirt. Law enforcement recovered a Mauser .30 caliber bolt-action rifle hidden in a towel in a wooded area near the university campus along what they suspect to be the shooter’s path as they fled the... Besides the spent cartridge recovered in the chamber, three other rounds were loaded in the magazine. The weapon and ammunition are being forensically analyzed by law enforcement at a federal lab for clues that could help identify the shooter or the motive. The FBI has released photos and video of a person of interest being sought in connection with the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the co-founder of the conservative youth organization Turning Point USA and an...

The FBI and Utah Department of Public Safety later released four additional images, which offer a clearer look at the shirt — which appears to be one sent to supporters of the Disabled Veterans... As of Thursday night, the person in the photos had not been identified. Authorities pleaded with the public for help to “try to identify if they know someone who has those items.” At a press conference on Thursday evening, the FBI and the Utah Department of Public Safety released new video and images showing a "person of interest" following the deadly shooting of 31-year-old Turning Point...
