Tyler Robinson was identified as the suspect who fatally shot Charlie Kirk at a Utah Valley University event on Wednesday, the New York Post reported, citing law enforcement sources. The report further added that the Utah local is 22 years old. Now, Robinson's alleged social media profiles have surfaced.
Robinson was identified soon after President Donald Trump told ‘Fox and Friends’ that the suspect was caught.
“I think, with a high degree of certainty, we have him. Somebody who was very close to him turned him in,” the president said, then revealing it was the suspect’s dad who relayed it through “a minister who was involved with law enforcement," Trump said.

“I hope he’s going to be found guilty and I hope he gets the death penalty. What he did — Charlie Kirk was the finest person and he didn’t deserve this.”
Meanwhile, social media users shared screenshots of what they claimed were Robinson's social media profiles. However, HT.com cannot verify the authenticity of these posts at the moment. Officials have not confirmed the details.
Kirk, the conservative activist and co-founder of Turning Point USA, was fatally shot during an event at Utah Valley University in what authorities described as a deliberate attack. Utah Governor Spencer Cox called the killing a 'political assassination'.

Police said Kirk was struck by a single round while addressing a crowd in a university courtyard on Wednesday evening. He was rushed to a hospital but later died.
Federal and state officials have circulated surveillance footage and images of a suspect but have not released a name or suggested a motive. More than 7,000 tips have already been submitted as the investigation continues.
Former President Donald Trump paid tribute to Kirk on Friday, saying, “He wanted to help young people, and he didn’t deserve this. He was really a good person.”
