Public memorial for Charlie Kirk to be held at State Farm Stadium
PHOENIX (AZFamily/AP) — Memorial arrangements have been announced for late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated while speaking at a Utah university earlier this week.
Turning Point USA announced that a public memorial for Kirk will be held at State Farm Stadium in Glendale on Sunday, September, 21. Doors will open at 8 a.m., and the program begins at 11 a.m. More information can be found here.
Kirk was killed by a single shot in what police said was a targeted attack, with Utah Governor Spencer Cox calling it a political assassination. Kirk co-founded the nonprofit political organization Turning Point USA, based in Arizona. He had been speaking at a debate hosted by Turning Point at Utah Valley University at the time of Wednesday’s shooting.
A manhunt was launched to find the assassin. On Friday, authorities announced that Tyler Robinson, 22, was arrested in connection with the deadly shooting.
