Right-wing political commentator Charlie Kirk was shot at during an event at Utah Valley University. According to reports, the gunshots were heard when he was asked about mass shootings and he was going to answer. Attendees went for cover and the multiple witnesses said they saw Kirk bleeding. President Donald Trump put out a post on his Truth Social urging everyone to pray of Kirk. "We must all pray for Charlie Kirk, who has been shot. A great guy from top to bottom. GOD BLESS HIM!" Trump wrote.
Videos posted to social media show Kirk speaking into a handheld microphone while sitting under a white tent emblazoned with the slogan "The American Comeback" and "Prove Me Wrong." A single shot rings out and Kirk can be seen reaching for his neck with his right hand.
“We do know there was a shot fired from the top of the Losee Center,” UVU said in a statement. “Someone appeared to be at the top of that building or somewhere inside. We don’t know if they’ve been apprehended.”
"Say a prayer for Charlie Kirk, a genuinely good guy and a young father," Vice President JD Vance posted on X. "Pray for Charlie Kirk now," posted Republican leader Vivek Ramaswamy.
Utah Gov Spencer Cox said he is being briefed by law enforcement about the shooting. Cox said in a post on X that “those responsible will be held fully accountable.” “Americans of every political persuasion must unite in condemning this act,” the governor said.
California Governor Gavin Newsom said the attack on Charlie Kirk is dusgusting, vile and reprehensible. "In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form."
Who is Charlie Kirk ? How he became a prominent MAGA voice
32-year-old Charlie Kirk became an influential MAGA voice in recent days, though his political activism started at a very young age. Kirk grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, Arlington Heights and Prospect Heights. In high school, he got involved in politics early—volunteering for a Senate campaign and even organizing to overturn a cafeteria price hike. After school, he was enrolled at Harper College but dropped out to pursue political activism full-time.
At the age of only 18, he co-founded Turning Point USA. Now he is the executive director. He hosts The Charlie Kirk Show and appears regularly on media platforms.
