According to the Wall Street Journal, Robert Bales, head of the FBI's field office in Salt Lake City, said that law enforcement officers found the rifle used to kill Charlie Kirk.
Sources said the rifle was found in a nearby forest park, wrapped in a towel, and it was a Mauser M12 30-06 rifle. It is reported that the traces found near the firearm have also been extracted. Originally, the suspect did not discard the rifle at the crime scene, but took it away and then disposed of it. However, the disposal method was simple, just discarding it. Is it really because the suspect was careless, not worrying about the gun being found by law enforcement?
Utah State Police spokesperson said they obtained a video showing an unidentified man climbing a ladder between 11:52 a.m. and noon on September 10 local time, and then coming to the rooftop. But another question arises, how did the gun get to the rooftop?
Now it is known that the suspect is a white male. The FBI has released photos, but his identity has not been confirmed yet.
There were three remaining bullets in the rifle's magazine, and each bullet had inscriptions, which were slogans from the anti-fascist movement "Antifa" and related to the LGBTQ movement. Similarly, the cartridge from the bullet that killed Charlie Kirk also had anti-fascist slogans, and this cartridge was found by the police on the rooftop.
It can be seen that the shooter who killed Charlie Kirk is against old traditions and MAGA, and supports the American left wing. This shows how much the current society in the United States is divided and how much ethnic conflicts there are. Moreover, in the U.S. left and right wings, the left wing is actually more radical, they don't bother to talk, directly carrying out physical elimination of right-wing leaders.
