Charlie Kirk‘s killer is at large — with cops and the FBI launching a massive manhunt after the MAGA leading light was assassinated at Utah Valley University in Orem on Wednesday afternoon. 

Early reports indicated that a suspect was in custody – but police later rolled back those claims and confirmed the shooter was still on the loose.

Kirk, 31, was fatally shot in the neck around after 12:20 p.m. local time Wednesday as he was speaking on campus south of Salt Lake City.

The shooter is believed to have fired a single shot from an elevated position about 200 yards from the tent where Kirk was seated

The university confirmed the gunman shot from a building across the quad.

Chilling footage circulating on social media could support that – moments after the fatal shot was fired, a distinct shape could be seen moving across the building roof as crowds cowered in the courtyard below.

No weapon has been recovered.

The gunman’s suspected shooting position suggests the killing was a calculated and deliberate plot.

Utah Valley University’s campus has been placed on lockdown as law enforcement continues combing the buildings room by room.

Here's the latest on the Charlie Kirk shooting in Utah

• Police identified Tyler Robinson, 22, as the alleged assassin who fatally shot Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10.
• Robinson was charged with aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury and obstruction of justice.
• Law enforcement confirmed that Robinson was living with a transgender roommate, and communications between the two helped the feds catch the alleged assassin.
• Kirk, the 31-year-old Turning Point USA co-founder, was attending an event on his American Comeback Tour when he was struck in the neck by a single shot.
• President Trump was among many who have called for the assassin to receive the death penalty.
• Kirk’s body was brought to Arizona from Utah on Air Force Two, accompanied by Vice President JD Vance, and taken to Phoenix’s Hansen Mortuary Chapel.
• Kirk’s funeral, which Trump has promised to attend, is scheduled for Sept. 21 at State Farm Stadium, home of the Arizona Cardinals.
• Kirk, a rising MAGA star, is survived by his wife and two young children.

“There is no suspect in custody, it is an active investigation,” the school said.

Officers from at least four law enforcement agencies involved in the manhunt, including the FBI, the Orem Police, the Utah Department of Public Safety and the Utah Valley University Police.

Police also dismissed a video circulating online showing an older man being hauled away by police on Utah Valley’s campus on Wednesday.

The man in the clip apparently told police he had shot Kirk, but law enforcement later confirmed he is not a suspect.

Kirk was rushed to a nearby hospital after the shooting and taken into surgery in critical condition, but later succumbed to his injuries.

President Trump confirmed the death personally on TruthSocial.

“The Great, and even Legendary, Charlie Kirk, is dead,” Trump wrote after the shooting, confirming Kirk’s death.

“No one understood or had the Heart of the Youth in the United States of America better than Charlie,” he said of Kirk, a married father of two young girls.

Horrifying footage from the event – where Kirk was debating with attendees opposed to his conservative opinions – showed a single gunshot ring out as he recoiled from the hit.

He had just been asked a question about transgender mass shooters when the bullet was fired. 

Kirk has often been credited for galvanizing young Republican voters through his immensely popular conservative group, Turning Point USA, which focused on traveling to college campuses to promote its values.
