20 MINUTES AGO: Officials give conflicting statements on suspect in Charlie Kirk shooting

Officials investigating the fatal shooting on Wednesday (Sept 10) of conservative activist Charlie Kirk gave conflicting accounts as to whether the suspected shooter was in custody, with FBI Director Kash Patel saying a subject was in custody and local police officials saying the shooter was at large.
Patel said on X that “the subject” was in custody.
Shortly after that, Beau Mason, the head of the Utah Department of Public Safety, said the suspect was still at large.
“While the suspect is at large we believe this was a targeted attack,” he said.
Utah Governor Spencer Cox said a “person of interest” was in custody.
