Suspect in Charlie Kirk's killing is identified by officials as Tyler Robinson Utah Governor Spencer Cox said that a family member of Robinson's reached out to a family friend who contacted the Washington County Sheriff's Office. NBC news The slaying of Charlie Kirk unleashed a flood of speculation that his assassin would have needed military experience and sniper-like precision to make the shot. Not so, firearms experts say. Shooting Kirk with a bolt-action rifle at 150 yards from an elevated position was not difficult and did not require any special training, they told The Arizona Republic. Anyone with limited experience using a store-bought long gun and commercial-grade ammunition and a scope could have made the shot that took Kirk's life during a Sept. 10 rally at Utah Valley University. "It was a simple shot," said Charles Stephenson, a former FBI-SWAT firearms instructor. "A novice would know how." Stephenson is president of the Orion Group, a security consulting firm in Overland, Kansas, and has testified as an expert witness in firearms cases. He dismissed notions that it would have taken a highly trained sniper to kill Kirk. He noted conspiracies about the shooting are already going viral. Airizona Central
