A man has been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk, according to a statement by U.S. President Donald Trump.
Trump announced that officials have a “high degree of certainty” that the person in custody is responsible for Kirk’s death. However, the identity of the suspect has not yet been publicly released by the authorities.
President Trump revealed that the suspect was turned in by someone “very close” to him. While this has given investigators a lead, Trump noted that it remains unclear whether the suspect was acting alone or if he was part of a larger coordinated effort. The investigation is ongoing, with authorities working to determine if there are further links.
