Breaking Report: Federal law enforcement sources have told CBS News that investigators now believe they have identified the name of the person of interest connected to the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

While officials have not yet released the identity to the public, the confirmation marks the most significant development in the case so far. According to insiders, this information could open the door for new leads, potential arrests, and increased pressure on those tied to the shooting.

Charlie Kirk, a conservative commentator and activist, was shot at a Utah college event earlier this week. The tragedy has shaken political circles nationwide, fueling speculation, outrage, and demands for swift justice. Federal investigators have worked around the clock piecing together witness statements, digital evidence, and surveillance footage.

At this stage, authorities remain tight-lipped about the person of interest’s background, possible motives, or connections. However, law enforcement officials have assured the public that the investigation is moving forward at “an accelerated pace.”

For now, the nation waits to see if the naming of a person of interest will be followed by an official arrest — and whether this breakthrough will finally reveal who was behind the shocking act that cut Kirk’s life short.
