WASHINGTON, DC (SEP. 11, 2025) (ANADOLU - ACCESS ALL)

1. VARIOUS OF U.S. FLAG HALF-STAFFED AT WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON DC, UNITED STATES - SEPTEMBER 11: Flags at the White House were lowered to half-staff to honor slain politician Charlie Kirk, founder and president of Turning Point USA in Washington, United States on September 11, 2025.

Kirk, 30, was fatally shot Wednesday afternoon while addressing a crowd of thousands at the university’s outdoor quad in Orem, about 40 miles south of Salt Lake City. Security at the event included six university police officers and Kirk’s private security team.

Videos posted online showed the apparent moment a bullet struck Kirk as he spoke from under a canopy, sending students fleeing in panic. He was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead hours later.

Calling Kirk “legendary,” US President Donald Trump ordered US flags nationwide lowered to half-staff to honor him.
