Early Thursday morning, the FBI released a series of photos of the “college-aged” man they’ve been scouring the area for.
“We are asking for the public’s help identifying this person of interest in connection with the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University,” the bureau wrote on X along with the photos, which show a lanky male dressed head to toe in dark clothing.
The subject is wearing wraparound sunglasses, a dark-colored hat and a long-sleeve shirt that appears to have an American flag on it.

The same “person of interest” was captured on surveillance video heading towards the UVU campus the morning of Kirk’s debate, according to footage obtained by TMZ.
The Utah Department of Public Safety posted another four photos showing more detailed images of the man Thursday night. While his face is obscured by the gray ball cap, an eagle and flag on his T-shirt and gray Converse sneakers are visible. Another image shows his black backpack.

The man was hobbling down the street, possibly concealing the bolt-action rifle authorities later recovered near the scene.
Authorities additionally noted that the man could’ve blended in with the crowd during the chaos immediately following the shooting, thanks to his outfit.
Anyone who might be able to identify the man is being asked to call 1-800-CALL-FBI or submit a tip digitally.

Kirk, 31, was killed by a single shot fired by a sniper from the Losee Center, a building on the campus of Utah Valley University, around 200 yards from where he was speaking as he kicked off his multi-city American Comeback tour.
Two suspects later found not to be connected to the shooting were arrested yesterday — one was hit with an obstruction of justice charge, and another was interrogated by federal agents and released.
An imported .30-06-caliber Mauser bolt-action rifle — found wrapped in a towel in a wooded area near the Orem campus — is believed to be the murder weapon, according to a memo put out by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Preliminary reports from law enforcement sources said the weapon contained cartridges engraved with “transgender and anti-fascist ideology,” however, a Justice Department source told The Post that the agency was not yet able to confirm the ATF’s descriptions matched the evidence recovered at the scene.
