Donald Trump has called for flags across the country to be flown at half mast in the wake of controversial alt-right figure Charlie Kirk‘s death. Kirk was shot in the neck at an event in Utah Valley University yesterday.
The 31-year-old was notorious for sharing his incendiary opinions online as he frequently spouted right-wing rhetoric and was an outspoken ally of President Donald Trump. Footage of the gruesome incident has already found its way online and it shows Kirk speaking into a microphone at an event on the campus. A shot can be heard and Kirk is seen leaning backwards and reaching up with his hand as blood spills from his neck down his shirt at an alarming rate.
