Utah Shooter Arrested After Charlie Kirk Murder with Inscribed Bullets

News summary

Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old Utah resident, was arrested for the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was shot while delivering a lecture at Utah Valley University. Investigators found unusual inscriptions on bullet casings from Robinson's bolt-action rifle, including antifascist slogans such as "Hey fascist! Catch!" and the phrase "Bella Ciao," a historic Italian resistance anthem popularized recently by the Netflix series La Casa de Papel. Other inscriptions combined internet meme language and video game references, notably a sequence of arrows linked to the popular shooter game Helldivers, symbolizing a bomb strike. Governor Spencer Cox noted Robinson had become more politically engaged and reportedly expressed that Kirk was "full of hate and spreading hate." Authorities believe Robinson acted alone and was not affiliated with the university. President Donald Trump confirmed the suspect was in custody, stating he was turned in by someone close to him.
