Utah officials postpone press briefing because of 'rapid developments' in case

Source: The Hill

by Rebecca Beitsch - 09/11/25 2:22 PM ET

The FBI has suspended a planned afternoon press conference on the Charlie Kirk shooting because of “rapid developments” in the case.

The announcement of the delayed press conference with the Utah Department of Public Safety came after the FBI released photos of a person of interest in the case.

“Due to the rapid developments in our investigation, we will suspend this,” the department said in an email, saying a rescheduled time would be announced later.

The images show what the FBI earlier described as someone of an age that “blended in well with a college institution,” and the person was seen wearing a hat and sunglasses along with an American flag T-shirt with an eagle on it. The FBI also offered up to a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the shooter.

If we pay them to do our jobs, they will come. I wonder which LEO will get the reward?
