• The killer is still at large, but officials tell CBS that the weapon found in a wooded area - where authorities believe the gunman fled - was an imported Mauser .30-06 bolt-action rifle
• Charlie Kirk's body will be flown on Air Force Two - the vice-president's aircraft - to Arizona, the state where he lived, according to officials who spoke to CBS
• You can also take a look at what we know, and don't know about the shooting so far

Asked about the rumors of engravings on the ammunition and rifle apprehended in the investigation into Kirk’s fatal shooting, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives told the Guardian: “ATF cannot comment on this since it is still an active investigation.”

3h ago

In an earlier post, we included a quote from Nancy Mace referring to reporting from the Wall Street Journal that “transgender, anti-fascist things that were engraved in the ammunition and in the rifle that was apprehended” in the investigation into Kirk’s killing.

According to a preliminary internal report circulated inside the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, federal and local officials recovered ammunition with the rifle that appeared to be engraved with statements “expressing transgender and anti-fascist ideology”.

But the New York Times reports that “a senior law enforcement official with direct knowledge of the investigation cautioned that report had not been verified by A.T.F. analysts, did not match other summaries of the evidence, and might turn out to have been misread or misinterpreted. In fast-moving investigations, such status reports are not made public because they often contain a mixture of accurate and inaccurate information.”
