Shots have been fired at a Charlie Kirk event at Utah Valley University.

Footage from the scene showed event goers screaming as shots rang out on Wednesday.

People at the event took to social media to share details of the moment someone opened fire at the conservative’s event as he conducted a Q & A session with students.

Republican Utah senator Mike Lee said: ‘I am tracking the situation at Utah Valley University closely. Please join me in praying for Charlie Kirk and the students gathered there.’
