I get it. But I can't rationalize with any educated thought that, unless the individual asking the question was somehow operating in conjunction with the shooter (which I don't believe happened), that the question was anything more than coincidental.

He said Kirk was talking about shootings by transgender people in response to an audience member’s question when a single gunshot rang out.
“He said there were too many shootings [by transgender people],” Brown said in an interview with the Minnesota Star Tribune. “Then the pop went off.”

Social media users claim video shows shooter on campus roof

BBC Verify has been examining a video posted on social media, which people are claiming may show a "shooter" on the roof of a building at Utah Valley University (UVU) where Charlie Kirk was shot dead.
At a briefing this evening, law enforcement officials said that they were studying CCTV from the university and believe the suspect was "dressed in dark clothing" and that the shot "came from a roof".
One post on X says: "Just got sent this video from UVU.... it appears the shooter was on the roof" and shows a video which zooms in to a university building with what appears to be a dark shape on the roof.
We zoomed in on the image but the quality is too poor to make out what it is.
We used the features of the building shown to locate it to the Losee Center – a building at UVU which a university spokesperson is reported to have identified as the place where the shot came from.
We estimate that this was about 150 yards from where Kirk was sitting when he was shot.
The video was posted on X after the shooting. We cannot Verify when it was filmed and have asked the person who posted it for more details.
We have looked for prior versions of the footage online before today but cannot find any.

Maybe he was determined not to be the shooter?
Oh I didn't mean to imply the shooting had anything at all to do with the actual dialogue at that specific get together.

It almost feels like that was meant as a signal for the shooter.

This is just crazy.
But how would he know if he was so far away?
Gunshot residue test would determine if he shot a gun recently.

We all understand that this is part of the fog of war, but the whiplash here is exacerbating an already gruesome day.
I know LE is working their tails off trying to get the killer in custody, but the “is he, isn’t he” in custody is alarming.
I’m praying the culprit hasn’t managed to slip away somewhere. That would be an outrage.

It’s amateurish. Everyone trying to be the center of attention.
Just heard this on the livestream I've been watching. Conspiratorial beliefs are gonna swirl the longer there's no apprehension IMO
FBI director Patel says 'subject' has been released from custody
FBI director Kash Patel has just said a previously detained "subject" in the Charlie Kirk shooting has been released."The subject in custody has been released after an interrogation by law enforcement," he writes on X. "Our investigation continues and we will continue to release information in interest of transparency."
There has been confusion about exactly who has been arrested.
Earlier, Patel and Utah Governor Spencer Cox said a suspect was in custody - although another official, Beau Mason, said the suspect was at large.

So the person who was in custody has been released? Is this the same person who was being charged with obstruction of justice, or is it the 25ish person that was described? The man dressed in black? I am totally confused.

Wow. While I understand things change rapidly in investigations like this, MOO it was highly inappropriate (and possibly detrimental to the investigation) for the director of the FBI to announce a subject was in custody (heavily implying that the shooter was in custody) the before an actual arrest was made.
