REPORT: Photos show where alleged Charlie Kirk assassin fired deadly shot

7

From Fox News: Two weeks after the shooting that killed Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, Fox News Digital accessed the rooftop where the alleged assassin is believed to have taken the shot — stopped only a few feet short of the exact position by a waist-high barrier and a single mobile security camera.

The rooftop of the Losee Center at Utah Valley University is now at the center of growing scrutiny, as investigators examine how Tyler Robinson, 22, was able to carry out the fatal attack.

A security expert told Fox News Digital that the rooftop at UVU represented a significant vulnerability.

“If he didn’t scout it out, he got extremely lucky to find a door that was open on the roof that he needed to get onto to effectuate the actions that he took,” said Bobby McDonald, a former U.S. Secret Service agent and campus security expert. “For him to be able to get to the position that he was able to…a lot of things had to happen in the right way.”

Much of Robinson’s actions have been captured by surveillance videos. The report explains:

  • Robinson walking onto the UVU campus shortly before noon on Sept. 10, potentially scouting out the area.
  • Surveillance cameras also captured him walking through a tunnel beneath Campus Drive, checking his phone, then appearing near the Losee Center with a “distinctive gait” — allegedly caused by a concealed rifle hidden in his jeans.
  • Additional video shows a man climbing a staircase to a common area beside the building, scaling a wall and crouching on the rooftop.
  • After several minutes, he is seen running across the roof and taking a prone shooting position with a direct line of sight to Kirk.
