Authorities announced Friday they apprehended a suspect in the Charlie Kirk assassination.

Authorities say 22-year-old Tyler Robinson was taken into custody by authorities after, according to Gov. Spencer Cox, “Robinson had confessed or implied he committed the incident.” The information was then relayed to various law enforcement departments.

Cox said that “Family members stated Robinson had become more political in recent years” and that a family member said Robinson was at a dinner prior to September 10 and during a conversation with another family member expressed his hatred toward Kirk.

More disturbing is that, according to Cox, Robinson etched political messages on his bullets, such as “Hey fascist! Catch!” “If you read this, you are gay lmfao,” “Notices bulges, OWO, what is this?” and “Bella ciao,” which is an Italian song dedicated to the partisans of the Italian resistance.

Cox also said there are messages between Robinson and an unidentified individual on Discord about Robinson leaving a rifle at a drop point, indicating Robinson may not have acted alone.

Kirk was murdered on Wednesday as he kicked off his college campus tour series in which he would engage in good faith debate with students. Kirk was answering a question about violence committed by people who identify as transgender when a single shot rang out.

This is a developing story.
