The news came after authorities said they had captured two separate individuals. They later released them. “He’s going to be wearing all black, black long gun, black tactical helmet, a black mask, possibly wearing a tactical vest and jeans,” a female dispatcher said over the radio, according to recordings.
The FBI said the assassin appeared about 11:52 a.m. and climbed to a rooftop through a campus building’s stairwell. Kirk’s event started at noon.
After the shot was fired, the assassin leapt down the opposite side of the building and ran away into the neighborhood. Police investigated the area.
