TOP STORY:
President Trump said a person of interest was taken into custody in connection with the shooting death of conservative political activist Charlie Kirk.
The president appeared on Fox News early Friday morning and said, "I think with a high degree of certainty, we have him in custody, in custody. Everyone did a great job, worked with local police, governor, everybody did a great job."
Trump’s announcement comes hours after authorities released new evidence to the public that showed the shooter flee the scene after firing a shot during Kirk’s appearance at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.
Video appears to show the shooter climb down from a roof after the gunfire; he is then seen running across a parking lot and into a wooded area, where investigators said they discovered a high-powered rifle wrapped in a towel.
