REPORT: Bullet Fragment From Charlie Kirk’s Autopsy Identified as .30 Caliber that Matches Rifle Used by Alleged Assassin Tyler Robinson
April 16, 2026
According to a new report, a bullet fragment recovered from Charlie Kirk’s body was identified as a .30 caliber that matched the rifle used by Tyler Robinson.
Robinson fatally shot TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025 during an event at Utah Valley University.
Tyler Robinson allegedly used a Mauser 98 .30-06 rifle to kill Charlie Kirk.
Robinson was charged with:
– Count 1: Aggravated murder (capital offense)
– Count 2: Felony reckless discharge of a firearm causing bodily injury
– Count 3: Felony obstruction of justice for hiding the firearm
– Count 4: Felony obstruction of justice for discarding the clothing he wore during the shooting
– Count 5: Witness tampering for asking roommate to delete incriminating messages
– Count 6: Witness tampering for demanding trans roommate stay silent, and not speak to police
– Count 7: Commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child
Utah prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
Last month a court filing by Robinson’s defense claimed the ATF had not been able to “identify” the bullet recovered in the autopsy of Charlie Kirk.
A new filing revealed that a bullet fragment recovered from Kirk’s body did indeed match the rifle used by Tyler Robinson.
Per The Daily Mail:
A bombshell new court filing in the case against Charlie Kirk’s accused killer Tyler Robinson provides new details about the bullet that took the conservative activist’s life and the gunman that allegedly fired it.
Robinson, 22, is facing capital murder charges and a potential death sentence for Kirk’s murder at Utah Valley University on September 10.
The forensic details surrounding the bullet examinations have fueled numerous debates and conspiracies surrounding the case, especially after the defense revealed in a recent court filing that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) ‘was unable to identify the bullet recovered at autopsy to the rifle allegedly tied to Mr. Robinson.’
But an ATF summary of the forensic report, part of documents filed by the defense in January, was unsealed by a judge on Wednesday revealing more details of the forensic investigation and recovered evidence from the scene.
The report reveals that one bullet jacket fragment that was recovered from Kirk’s autopsy matched a .30 caliber class bullet. Four other lead bullet fragments were also recovered.
‘The ATF lab described the item as a “.30-caliber class deformed/damaged bullet jacket fragment,”‘ the filing reveals, citing evidence included in the report after the FBI lab conducted analysis of the bullet jacket fragment.
Last week it was reported that newly-released search warrants reveal Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson’s damning handwritten note to his transgender lover, Lance Twiggs.
Last Friday, a newly-unsealed affidavit revealed that Tyler Robinson wrote a handwritten letter to his live-in lover Lance Twiggs, AKA, “Luna” in which he admits to a plot to kill Charlie Kirk.
“I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I took it,” Robinson wrote.
Investigators also recovered DNA, a palm print on the roof of the Losee Center building.

Kidnapped Teen Girl Rescued After Observant Gas Station Clerk Notices ‘There’s Something Wrong’
April 16, 2026
A quick-thinking and courageous gas station clerk helped rescue a 16-year-old girl from a kidnapping and probably worse.
According to WXYZ-TV in Detroit, Michigan, Abdulrahman Abohatem, store clerk at the Detroit-area Sunoco gas station into which the alleged abductor brought the girl around 7:30 a.m. Monday, recognized something odd in the interaction between the two.
“When he ask her to pay for the cigarettes, I stop and go, ‘There’s something wrong.’ And she mouthed talked to me, like with no sound, ‘help,’” Abohatem said.

That’s when the clerk decided to act.
“I go out, I kick him out, I ask the girl go behind me,” Abohatem said.
Shortly after 7 a.m., the girl, a student at the Frontier International Academy charter school, had been abducted at gunpoint while walking to her school bus stop.
The incident occurred in the city of Hamtramck, roughly five miles north of downtown Detroit.
Hamtramck Police Department Chief Hussein Farhat described the incident as a stranger abduction.
“This is a random incident. This suspect could have driven anywhere, saw the opportunity and took advantage of it,” Farhat said.
Fortunately, witnesses reported the abduction.
“I’m walking to my bus stop, and I just see somebody snatching this girl,” an unidentified caller said in a 911 call, per ABC News.
Meanwhile, the girl’s friends sprang into action.
“One of her friends opened the location through one of the social media apps,” Frontier International Academy principal Mohammed Alsanai told ABC News. “I said, ‘Oh, I could see her location right now.’ As we show the police the location, informed the dispatch, and as she walked in and said she had the location, like the whole room froze and we all look at each other like, ‘Here we go.’”
Thus, police arrived on the scene as the brave store clerk escorted the suspect outside.
A clip posted to the social media platform X showed surveillance footage of the alleged abductor and the girl — their identities obscured — walking into the convenience store. Then, the same clip showed police bodycam footage of the arrest. Finally, the clip showed surveillance footage of the clerk outside the store pointing police toward the suspect.
@CBSDetroit @cbsdetroit Hamtramck Police say it only took 30 minutes to find a kidnapping suspect and rescue a 16-year-old teen on Monday morning.
They say the armed abduction happened while the teen was on their way to the bus stop just after 7:00 a.m.

Hamtramck Mayor Adam Alharbi told reporters that the suspect “had a history of rape charges, and we will make sure that he gets what he deserves,” per ABC News.

LISTEN: Police Dispatch Audio Reveals Moments After Former Virginia Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax Kills His Wife and Himself
April 16, 2026
Horrifying dispatch audio of the 911 call that came in after Justin Fairfax and his wife died in a murder-suicide was released Thursday afternoon.
Former Virginia Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax shot and killed his wife, Cerina and then shot himself dead early Thursday morning.
According to NBC4 Washington, Justin Fairfax had just lost custody of his teenage children and was ordered to move out of the marital home before he murdered his wife and turned the gun on himself.
“The wife testified that heavy daily alcohol consumption by the father has become the norm,” a judge wrote in the custody opinion, the outlet reported.
“The court documents say Justin spiraled into alcoholism and isolated himself from family involvement following the 2019 sexual assault allegations against him while he was in office. They’re allegations he denied but that weighed on him tremendously, the judge wrote,” according to NBC 4 Washington.
Justin and Cerina’s two teenage children, a son and a daughter were home at the time of the bloody murder-suicide.
Fairfax’s 16-year-old son, Cameron dialed 911 and reported his mother had been shot.
Audio of the 911 call was later released.
“Caller stating that his dad might have stabbed his mom and that she’s lying on the ground bleeding, can see holes in her shirt. Unknown where his father is now,” a female dispatcher is heard saying.
“I haven’t cleared the scene yet, I have the son with me downstairs. Units on scene to clear the house, husband’s car is still in the driveway,” a male said.
AUDIO:
As the court document stated, Justin Fairfax battled accusations of sexual assault back in 2019 when he was in office serving with KKK-Blackface Ralph Northam.
Dr. Vanessa Tyson was the first woman to come forward and claim Justin Fairfax sexually assaulted her at a DNC convention in Boston in 2004.
Dr. Tyson says after she was assaulted by Justin Fairfax, she “suffered from both deep humiliation and shame,” a common thing women experience after a traumatic sexual assault.
“I did not speak about it for years, and I (like most survivors) suppressed those memories and emotions as a necessary means to continue my studies, and to pursue my goal of building a successful career as an academic,” Dr. Tyson said in a 2019 statement.
A second woman then came forward and accused then-Virginia Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax of sexual assault.
The accuser, a woman named Meredith Watson, requested the resignation of Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax through her attorney Nancy Erika Smith, alleging Fairfax raped her in college in the year 2000.
According to the statement released by Nancy Erika Smith, Meredith Watson has contemporaneous witnesses, fellow classmates at Duke University, who provided statements corroborating Ms. Watson’s claims Fairfax raped her.
Justin Fairfax admitted to having encounters with both women, however, he maintained everything was consensual.
