Donald Trump has revealed that the person who allegedly assassinated Charlie Kirk is in custody.

‘I think with a high degree of certainty we have him in custody,’ the president told Fox & Friends on Friday morning.

Trump said that ‘somebody who was very close’ to the suspect turned him in to police.

Law enforcement will share more details about the suspect’s arrest later on Friday.

Neither the FBI nor the Utah Department of Public Safety have confirmed Trump’s announcement.

His in-studio appearance is rare and comes just two days after the conservative luminary was gunned down during an event on a college campus in Utah.

While Trump said he didn’t want to get ahead of his Justice Department and FBI, he shared a few details that he knows about how they tracked down the suspected shooter.

‘It was a minister who was involved with law enforcement… his good friend is a top U.S. Marshal – and they took it from there,’ Trump said, suggesting that the suspect’s father told him it was time to turn themselves in.

The president traveled to his longtime home of New York City on Thursday for the September 11 Yankees’ remembrance game. He stayed overnight and went in studio for his interview with Fox & Friends.

The apparent arrest comes after officials said hours earlier they had ‘no idea’ where the shooter was and shared new surveillance footage capturing the suspect moments after the attack.

The video shows the shooter running across the roof of the Lossee Center at Utah Valley University and jumping to the ground, before fleeing the scene moments after the shooting.

Officials said the shooter left behind a palm print and a shoe print from a pair of Converse sneakers.

The suspect is then believed to have fled to a nearby residential neighborhood.

Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance and wife Usha canceled their plan to go to New York City for Ground Zero services on Thursday.

Instead they rushed to Salt Lake City, Utah where they carried Kirk’s casket along with his wife, two kids, parents and close friends aboard Air Force Two back to his home state of Arizona.

The FBI Salt Lake City field office released video and images of the suspected shooter on Thursday.

The Bureau also set up a webpage for updates that offered a $100,000 reward for those with information leading to the identification and arrest of those responsible for Kirk’s murder.
