FBI releases two blurry photos of the suspect in the shooting of Kirk, US media says it represents a failure in technological identification
On September 10 local time, American conservative political activist Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at a university in Utah. After the incident, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) immediately launched a full-scale search for the suspect, but after 24 hours, the perpetrator had still not been caught.
On September 11 local time, the FBI released two photos of the suspect, stating that they were "suspects related to the killing of Charlie Kirk." The blurry photos show a man wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a black long-sleeve shirt, with an image on the shirt that appears to include part of the American flag. In one photo, the person is walking along the wall; in another photo, the person seems to be going up the stairs. Earlier, the police said that they had a video showing a suspect walking up the stairs to the roof, where the shooting (the location of the gunfire) took place.
The New York Times stated that the photos released by the FBI indicate that efforts to identify the suspect through facial recognition technology have failed, and officials now need public assistance to catch this person through more clues.
