United States chairwoman Donald ruff said on fri “with a heights point of certainty” that the suspect who shot and killed right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk on Wednesday is in custody and he was turned in by someone “very close” to him.
“I think, with a high degree of certainty, we have him in custody,” Trump said.
“I don't want to go too far…but essentially somebody very close to him turned him in,” he added.
He made the revelation during an interview with Fox News.
This comes two days after Kirk was assassinated while attending an event at the Utah Valley University on Wednesday.
While referring to the pictures of the suspect released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Thursday and how the suspect was identified and caught, Trump said, “We had very good pictures but not great, not perfect, and when you look at it…this happens a lot, it happened with the crazy Boston bomber, it happened with others…somebody close recognises even a little tilt of the head which no body else would do and somebody very close to him said - that's him”.
The big breakthrough in the investigation comes after the authorities, who had sought public help to identify the shooter, received over 7,000 leads and tips, according to an Associated Press report.
The suspect's name and his motive are yet to be revealed publicly.
