Charlie Kirk stopping bullet a life-saving ‘miracle’: Spokesman
Share this @internewscast.com

The high-velocity bullet that tragically took the life of Charlie Kirk on September 10 did not exit and potentially harm others at the packed venue where Kirk was killed, according to the executive producer of “The Charlie Kirk Show” on Saturday.

Kirk was fatally wounded when a sniper fired a single round from 200 yards away on the campus of Utah Valley University and struck him in the neck.

Andrew Kolvet, who produced Kirk’s well-known talk show, noted that the bullet’s failure to wound or kill others behind Kirk is something to be grateful for. He mentioned the surgeon who attempted to save Kirk at the hospital was surprised the bullet did not travel further but also pointed out the “density” of Kirk’s body.

Where the bullet that killed Charlie Kirk was found

The bullet “should have gone straight through. It probably would have killed those behind him too,” Kolvet shared what the physician told him on Saturday. This account was posted on the social media platform X.

The coroner found the bullet “just beneath the skin,” said Kolvet, who also serves as spokesman for Kirk’s Turning Point USA.

“Even in death, Charlie managed to save the lives of those around him. Remarkable. Miraculous,” he said.

Turning Point spokesman responds to ‘online chatter’ about Kirk death

Kolvet stated he had permission to disclose the details on Saturday, ahead of Kirk’s memorial service in Phoenix. He was addressing “online conversations” about the absence of an exit wound.

Police discovered the alleged murder weapon, a powerful bolt-action rifle, after the shooter leaped from a rooftop on the UVU campus and escaped into a wooded area.

A suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was arrested 33 hours following the shooting and is facing charges of aggravated murder. Utah Gov. Spencer Cox has deemed the act a political assassination and claims Robinson had become radicalized.

In response to Kolvet’s statement Saturday, reached out to the hospital that received Kirk before he was pronounced.
