The outdoor event was the first stop of the Fall 2025 season for the American Comeback Tour, a speaking and debate series planned by Turning Point USA, a conservative youth organization he co-founded. Assassination of Charlie Kirk The tent in which Kirk was fatally shot, cordoned off with police tape Map Wikimedia | © OpenStreetMap Interactive map of Assassination of Charlie Kirk Location 40°16′39.1″N 111°42′50.5″W Utah Valley University Orem, Utah, US Date September 10, 2025; 2 months ago 12:23 p.m. MDT (UTC−06:00) Target Charlie Kirk Attack type Sniper assassination Weapon Mauser M 98 .30-06 bolt-action rifle Deaths 1 (Kirk) Motive See § Views and possible motives Accused Tyler James Robinson Charges 10 counts[a] Kirk was fatally shot in the neck while engaging with an audience member about mass shootings in the United States by a shooter on the roof of a building approximately 142 yards (130 m) away from him. The next day, the accused shooter, 22-year-old Tyler James Robinson, surrendered himself to the local sheriff. Prosecutors charged Robinson with aggravated murder on September 16 and announced they would seek the death penalty, alleging the attack was politically motivated.[2][3][4] The assassination was highlighted as an instance of increasing political violence within the United States and was condemned by national and foreign leaders. Video footage of the shooting spread rapidly on social media, and reactions ranged from heartfelt messages expressing anguish about the political climate to sharply partisan comments and celebrations of his death.[5][6][7] President Donald Trump, members of the Republican Party, and other conservative figures blamed members of the Democratic Party and left-wing or liberal beliefs before a suspect was in custody or a motive was identified.[8][9] The Trump administration called for a crackdown against what it called "political extremism" on the left,[10][11][12][13] which was widely criticized by free speech advocates and legal experts as using the assassination as a pretext to silence political opposition.[14][15][13][11] A campaign by right-wing organizations and US government agencies resulted in mass firings and disciplinary actions against people seen as celebrating Kirk's death or making critical comments about him in the aftermath of the assassination.[5][16] Kirk's memorial service was held at State Farm Stadium on September 21.

I obviously could not have typed that so fast. For some reason you are not able to access stories about this assassination. I can literally find hundreds of articles about it
