Trump says ‘with a high degree of certainty’ that suspect in Charlie Kirk killing has been caught

President Donald Trump said Friday “with a high degree of certainty” that the suspect in the Charlie Kirk killing has been caught.

Federal investigators and state officials on Thursday had released photos and a video of the person they believe is responsible. Kirk was shot as he spoke to a crowd gathered in a courtyard at Utah Valley University in Orem.

More than 7,000 leads and tips had poured in, officials said. Authorities have yet to publicly name the suspect or cite a motive in the killing, the latest act of political violence to convulse the United States.
