On September 10, 2025, while on stage at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, for a TPUSA event known as "The American Comeback Tour", Kirk was fatally shot in the neck. The shooting took place around 12:20 p.m. MDT (18:20 UTC), 20 minutes after the event began.

Footage recorded at the moment of the shooting shows him recoiling while speaking and blood pouring from his neck. A university spokesperson later stated that a suspect was in custody, but the person was determined not to be the shooter.

Kirk was taken to the Timpanogos Regional Hospital in critical condition, where he was pronounced dead later that afternoon at the age of 31.

His death was publicly announced by US president Donald Trump at 4:40 p.m. EDT (20:40 UTC) in a post on Truth Social, and was later confirmed by Kirk's spokesperson.

At 6:21 p.m. EDT (22:21 UTC), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) director Kash Patel announced on social media that a "subject" was in custody.

Utah governor Spencer Cox confirmed that there was one person in custody and that it was believed the perpetrator acted alone.

This individual was later released after interrogation.

At a press conference, FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert Bohls described the investigation as "in its early stages" and encouraged members of the public to come forward with information.

Charlie Kirk co-founded the conservative organization Turning Point USA (TPUSA) in 2012 and was its executive director. He was the chief executive officer (CEO) of Turning Point Action (TPAction) and a member of the Council for National Policy (CNP).
