Mourners held candlelight vigils for Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated on Wednesday.

Footage shows members of the community raising lit candles in Seattle as they mourned the death of the political commentator and Trump ally.

Charlie, who cofounded Turning Point USA, was killed by a suspected sniper at around 12:25 pm while he held a political discussion at a campus event at Utah Valley University.

Police detained two suspects, but they were later released. The hunt for the assassin is ongoing.

President Donald Trump said he is 'filled with grief and anger at the heinous assassination' and called it a 'dark moment for America'.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, along with the Utah Department of Public Safety, has released new images of a person of interest linked to the incident.

A reward of up to 100,000 USD is being offered for information leading to an arrest in connection with the shooting.
