Hundreds of supporters gathered for a memorial service honouring Charlie Kirk at the Kennedy Centre in Washington, DC.

Footage shows mourners raising lights in unity as they pay tribute to the conservative commentator and Trump supporter, who was fatally shot during a campus event in Utah last week.

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.

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

Law enforcement has taken a suspect into custody, with Utah Governor Spencer Cox identifying the alleged shooter as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.

Governor Cox said: 'He is not cooperating, but all the people around him were cooperating, and I think that's very important.'
