(AP) – The suspect in custody in connection with the assassination of Charlie Kirk is a 22-year-old from Utah, authorities said Friday. Cox was joined by FBI Director Kash Patel and other officials at a news conference announcing the arrest. President Donald Trump announced earlier Friday “with a high degree of certainty” that the suspect in Kirk’s killing has been caught. 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 as authorities responded to the latest act of political violence to convulse the United States.
