OREM, Utah, September 12, 2025 — Reporting from the ground, Fox’s CB Cotton confirmed that the suspect in the assassination of Charlie Kirk has now been identified as Tyler Robinson. According to federal sources, it was Robinson’s father who ultimately turned him in last night in southern Utah, following a major FBI push for public assistance.

The sequence of events mirrors what President Trump had revealed earlier in the morning: a Utah minister, who was friends with a U.S. Marshal, became involved and helped bring the case to Robinson’s father, who convinced his son to surrender. This direct intervention led to Robinson’s arrest and custody.

Authorities noted that the FBI had released enhanced surveillance images and urged the public to come forward, sparking movement on the ground. Chilling video from the scene showed the gunman moving quickly across a roof, dropping down into a parking lot, and discarding his weapon in a wooded area. Newly released gunshot audio and ...

NEW YORK, September 12, 2025 — President Donald Trump broke major news on Fox & Friends this morning, confirming with “a high degree of certainty” that the suspect has been apprehended and is now in custody.

The interview opened with host Ainsley Earhardt recalling Trump’s presence at the 9/11 memorial the day before, noting that Senator J.D. Vance had traveled instead to Arizona to be with Charlie Kirk’s family and bring Charlie’s body back home. Trump, who had announced plans to award Vance the Presidential Medal of Freedom, then shifted into breaking developments on the suspect.

Trump praised the extraordinary work of law enforcement, local police, and the governor in securing the arrest within just two and a half days. He highlighted how the investigation began with almost nothing but a blurry clip that made the suspect “look like an ant,” yet it quickly developed into a successful capture.

The turning point, Trump revealed, came when someone close to the suspect ...

WASHINGTON, September 11, 2025 — Speaking in a live Fox News interview, President Donald Trump confirmed that authorities have apprehended the suspect believed responsible for the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.

“I think with a high degree of certainty we have him. Right now. In custody, right? In custody. Everyone did a great job. We worked with the local police, the governor, everybody did a great job,” Trump declared.

The president described the challenge investigators faced in tracking the alleged killer, who fled after fatally shooting Kirk during a campus event at Utah Valley University. “You know, getting somebody that you start off with absolutely nothing… we started off with a clip that made him look like an ant that was almost useless. There was somebody up there. And so much work has been done over the last two and a half days. It’s amazing, actually, when you start off with that and then all of a sudden you get lucky, or talent, or whatever it...

• NEW YORK, September 12, 2025 — Donald Trump Jr. joined Fox’s Martha MacCallum to reflect on the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the arrest of 22-year-old Tyler Robinson. In an emotional interview, Trump Jr. condemned the celebration of Kirk’s murder by some on the left and emphasized that Charlie’s only “crime” was his effectiveness in exposing failed Democrat narratives.

“It’s been very hard, Martha. What was Charlie’s real crime? He spoke truth. He gave even his biggest detractors a platform to debate, and he did it cordially. That’s why he was so effective with young people. He showed how asinine so many of the Democrat ideas really are,” Trump Jr. said.

He reacted to reports that Robinson had inscribed shell casings with anti-fascist slogans and propaganda: “Charlie’s crime was talking about God, family, country — things that Democrats now treat as verboten. God forbid you like the Constitution. God forbid you say men shouldn’t ...
