Fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk in Utah
We have the latest on the killing and manhunt in the US.
A huge search is continuing in the United States for the killer of one of President Trump's closest allies, Charlie Kirk. The conservative activist was shot in the neck during an event at a university in Utah on Wednesday. Vice President JD Vance is expected to visit Kirk's family later today. The killer's identity and motive are still unknown but Mr Trump has blamed what he called the "radical left" for the shooting and other recent political attacks, and promised a crackdown.
We join with our colleagues from 蜜芽传媒 TV News for an hour of special coverage of the killing of Charlie Kirk. We hear from eyewitnesses and local journalists, and we answer audience questions with the help of our correspondents and disinformation specialists.
