(AP) — Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and close ally of President Donald Trump, was shot and killed Wednesday at a Utah college event in an act that drew renewed attention to the threat of political violence across the United States. The AP was able to confirm the videos were taken at Sorensen Center courtyard on the Utah Valley University campus. Immediately before the shooting, Kirk was taking questions for an audience member about mass shootings and gun violence. He said there was a light police presence at the event and Kirk had some security but not enough. Kirk served as a personal aide to Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, during the general election campaign.
