Live updates: Charlie Kirk shot dead on Utah campus; FBI releases images of person of interest

0

A Utah Valley University student told CNN on Thursday night he saw a man walking on or near the roof of the Losee Center twice in the last two weeks.

The student said he was not sure it was the same person depicted in photographs released by police in connection with Charlie Kirk’s killing, but that the individual “looked familiar.” The student said it was unusual to see someone on that part of the roof.

“It was weird,” he said.

The student said he last saw the person on the roof last Wednesday at noon, a week before the shooting.

He told CNN that he reported his observations to the FBI tipline after the shooting, but has not heard back.

The student described the man as a “tall, skinny-ish white dude [who] had dark hair. He had this backpack on and was wearing dark clothes.” He added that the man was looking down at the courtyard area where Kirk’s speaking engagement was later held.

At the time, the student said, he thought it unusual for a person to be near the roof, but he did not report it to authorities.

He said a professor also noticed the man on the roof and called out to him. According to the student, the professor asked, “Hey, man, are you doing all right?” and the man on the roof “just kind of dismissed what he said.”

Tim Berners-Lee: The internet needs compassion – and I have a solution

The most egregious symptom is polarisation. Social media, as currently built, leads users to take extreme political positions and demonise the opposing side. This makes constructive engagement difficult, allows outlandish conspiracy theories to flourish, and promotes demagoguery over deliberation. Soon, civilised discussion about important issues becomes impossible. Polarisation, I fear, might have dire outcomes for humanity, with consequences on a global scale.

Dow Jones, S&P 500, Nasdaq climb as investors await Fed decision after Nasdaq’s record close

Bloomberg reports:

Bullion traded near $3,640 an ounce, after gaining for four consecutive weeks. Traders see a quarter-point cut this week amid signs of labor market weakness, and some potential for reductions extending into next year.

That expectation has driven Treasury yields to the lowest in months, weakened the greenback and supported gold. Lower yields reduce the opportunity cost for holding the metal, while a weaker dollar makes it more affordable. Whether the central bank will challenge these bets is a key question for investors this week.

“Macroeconomic numbers are likely to take over from tariff-related headlines,” ANZ Group Holdings’ Daniel Hynes and Soni Kumari said in a note, meaning that investors are watching how US tariffs will impact the nation’s economic growth and inflation data.

Bullion has rallied nearly 40% this year, and recently broke out a spell of range-bound trading to surpass an inflation-adjusted record. Persistent uncertainty over geopolitics and Trump’s tariff agenda, and concerted central bank buying have provided support.

BOCA RATON, FL — Memphis football will be without a few contributors for its American Conference opener at FAU.

Running back Makari Bodiford is out, according to Memphis’ injury report. He has played a role early in the season as the goal-line back, and that could open up more opportunities for Frank Peasant.

Cornerback Chauncey Logan is also out. He started the first two games of the season.

The American Conference has instituted availability reports for the first time, but the rules apply only for conference games.

Memphis vs. FAU will kick off at 6 p.m. CT and will be televised on ESPN2.

  • DB Kourtlan Marsh (out for season)
  • DB Chauncey Logan
  • DB Shannon Blair
  • DE Chase Carter
  • DB Cameron Miller
  • RB Makari Bodiford

Who’s in for Memphis against Florida Atlantic

Running back Greg Desrosiers missed two games with an apparent foot injury, but he returned in last week’s win over Arkansas and is not on the injury report.

He had nine carries against Arkansas and could be in line for more work against the Owls.
