This is true, as reported on by numerous sources like Reuters, AP, Washington Post, among others. 

From the BBC: "Charlie Kirk, an influential right-wing activist and a close ally of US President Donald Trump, was shot dead on Wednesday while speaking at an event at a university in Utah."

This statement is true according to sources such as Fox News and AP News. I found that Charlie Kirk was assassinated on September 10th, 2025 at Utah Valley University. A quote from AP News states, "The assassin fired a deadly shot from a bolt action rifle at Kirk from about 400 feet (122 meters) away." Another quote from Fox News claims, "During an episode of "The Charlie Kirk Show," executive producer Andrew Kolvet explained that the Turning Point USA security team lacks the authority to oversee rooftops or areas beyond Kirk's immediate location at campus events", which proves that Kirk's security was unable to see, or stop, his assassination.
