Charlie Kirk shooting: A visual timeline of how it unfolded - ABC News

Charlie Kirk, a well-known conservative activist and ally of Pr3sident D0nald Tr::ump, was sh0t d3ad at an event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.

Video of the incident circulating on social media showed Kirk speaking to a large outdoor crowd as he sat under a tent.

Kirk briefly clutched his neck before collapsing to the side as blood rushed from his body. He was 31 years old.

Kirk was on a speaking tour, and the stop in Utah was the first of at least 15 scheduled events at universities around the country as part of his “American Comeback Tour.”

Before the sh00ting, he was seated at his “Prove Me Wrong” debating table and speaking with a man. Videos show that Kirk was going back and forth with a student about mass sh00tings and transgender people.

“Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass sh00ters over the last 10 years?” Charlie Kirk was asked.


“Too many,” Kirk responded as the crowd responded with thunderous applause.

“Do you know how many mass sh00ters there have been in America over the last 10 years?” Kirk replied, “Counting or not counting gang violence?”

Less than a second later, he was sh0t.

We now have footage that shows the heartbreaking reaction of the student who could be seen freaking out after the bullet struck Charlie Kirk.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.
