Identity Revealed As Father Turns In 22yrs Old Son Who Shot And Killed Trump’s Ally, Charlie Krik

U.S. President Donald Trump announced Friday in a television interview that authorities have arrested a suspect in the killing of pro-Israel right-wing activist Charlie Kirk, following a nearly two-day manhunt.

The New York Post identified the suspect as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson from Utah. According to CNN, Robinson confessed to his father that he shot Kirk, and his father turned him in, notifying authorities and remaining with him until the arrest. Kirk, a close ally of Trump, was gunned down on Wednesday during an event at a Utah university.

The murder sparked outrage across conservative circles, with many Trump supporters portraying it as a politically motivated attack. Some blamed the political left, pointing to celebratory social media posts as proof that conservatives are being increasingly targeted.

“They couldn’t beat him in a debate, so they assassinated him,” wrote Isabella Maria DeLuca, a pardoned January 6 rioter and conservative activist, on X.

Republican lawyer and Trump supporter Mike Davis said in an interview that Kirk’s ability to inspire young conservatives represented “an existential threat to the future of leftist ideology and power.”
