A suspect in Charlie Kirk’s assassination was turned in by his father, President Donald Trump confirmed. Reports identify him as Tyler Robinson, 22, of Utah.
Charlie Kirk, 31, founder of Turning Point USA and ally of President Trump, was shot in the neck and killed during a campus event Wednesday, triggering nationwide outrage and a massive manhunt.
Robinson was reportedly turned in by his father, a pastor, who reached authorities through a minister connected to law enforcement.
His name was released Friday morning by the New York Post, citing law enforcement sources.
“I think, with a high degree of certainty, we have him,” Trump told ‘Fox & Friends’ on Friday morning.
Trump added, “I hope he’s going to be found guilty and I hope he gets the death penalty. What he did — Charlie Kirk was the finest person and he didn’t deserve this.”
