Campus surveillance ties shooter to rooftop ambush before Charlie Kirk shooting

TL;DR Summary
Prosecutors in Provo, Utah, showed campus surveillance that places Tyler Robinson on Utah Valley University grounds hours before he shot conservative activist Charlie Kirk from a rooftop, after strolling the campus, grabbing Chick-fil-A, and contacting Kirk’s staff; investigators recovered the suspected rifle and later found it wrapped in a towel, and witnesses said he fled on foot. A note to his roommate and DNA evidence are among the pieces prosecutors plan to present as they seek the death penalty, arguing the attack endangered others and qualifies as aggravated murder.
