00:01
The manhunt intensifies. New video, new images, as investigators zero in on the gunman who killed Charlie Kirk.
00:08
Plus, panic at the Naval Academy. A false active shooter alert sparks real violence and leaves one student shot.
00:15
And Prince Harry in Ukraine. His mission to help the war wounded, and why he says sports can be medicine.
00:24
The stories that matter, clear and credible, from across the country to around the world.
00:30
These are your unbiased updates from Straight Arrow News.
00:36
Good morning, I'm Craig DeGrelli. We begin with the Charlie Kirk murder investigation.
00:40
The FBI has now released chilling new video of the gunman who remains on the loose this morning,
00:46
more than 30 hours after the conservative activist was gunned down at Utah Valley University.
00:51
The footage shows right here a man springing across a campus rooftop just after the deadly shot.
00:58
Now watch, he jumps down from the building, then hurries off near a parking lot into the street nearby.
01:05
Investigators later found the bolt-action rifle used in the attack, along with palm and shoe prints and possible DNA.
01:11
Officials also released photographs of a person of interest.
01:15
This guy right here, a man in sunglasses with a cap and a black shirt with an eagle and U.S. flag on it.
01:20
So far, he has not been identified through facial recognition or other technology.
01:24
At a press conference, Governor Spencer Cox called the shooter a, quote, evil human being and vowed to pursue the death penalty if he's caught.
01:33
FBI Director Kash Patel flew to Utah to oversee the case, but did not speak at the briefing.
01:39
Officials say they've received more than 7,000 tips, more digital leads than any case since the Boston Marathon bombing in 2013.
01:48
Across the country, vigils honored Charlie Kirk, candles in Orem, Utah, flowers at Turning Point USA headquarters in Phoenix,
01:56
and supporters gathering at the Utah Capitol.
02:00
Late yesterday, Air Force Two landed in Phoenix with his casket, escorted by Vice President J.D. Vance.
02:06
His wife, Usha, held the hand of Kirk's wife, Erica, as they deplaned.
02:11
He will be laid to rest in Arizona.
02:13
He lived in Scottsdale.
02:15
President Trump says he will attend the funeral.
02:18
Elsewhere, a wild sequence of events in Annapolis, Maryland.
02:22
What began as a report of an active shooter at the U.S. Naval Academy turned out to be a hoax,
02:28
but the reaction on campus was very real.
02:30
Investigators say the threat was traced to a former midshipman on a chat site logging in from his parents' home in the Midwest.
02:38
The campus went on lockdown.
02:40
Students and staff got an email warning that said, quote,
02:43
Get inside and lock your door right now, not a drill.
02:46
Amid the panic, a student mistook a law enforcement officer for the gunman,
02:50
struck him in the head with a rifle, and the officer fired back.
02:53
The student was shot in the arm.
02:55
Both are expected to recover.
02:57
By 9 p.m., the Baltimore Sun reports the academy remained on lockdown with people told to avoid the area.
03:04
The Navy women's soccer game was canceled.
03:07
History in Brazil to tell you about now.
03:10
Former President Jair Bolsonaro has been convicted of plotting a coup to stay in power after losing the 2022 election.
03:18
Brazil's Supreme Court found him guilty of trying to overturn the vote,
03:21
a verdict that makes Bolsonaro the first ex-president in the country's history convicted of attacking democracy.
03:29
Justices said the evidence showed he acted to erode institutions,
03:33
even approving plans to assassinate political rivals.
03:36
Outside the court, supporters of the ruling celebrated.
03:40
A trumpeter playing as word of the verdict spread.
03:43
President Trump was asked by reporters what he thought of the verdict shortly after it came down.
03:48
I thought he was a good president of Brazil, and it's very surprising that that could happen.
03:54
That's very much like they tried to do with me, but they didn't get away with it at all.
03:59
But I can only say this.
04:02
I knew him as president of Brazil.
04:04
He was a good man, and I don't see that happening.
04:07
Secretary of State Marco Rubio added the United States will respond accordingly.
04:12
The court sentenced Bolsonaro to 27 years in prison.
04:15
A blockbuster deal could be brewing in Hollywood.
04:19
Paramount Skydance, backed by the Ellison family,
04:22
is preparing a majority cash bid for Warner Brothers Discovery.
04:26
The news was first reported by The Wall Street Journal.
04:29
The offer would cover the entire company,
04:31
from Warner's movie studio and HBO Max,
04:34
to its cable networks, CNN, TBS, and TNT.
04:38
Warner Brothers Discovery has a market value of nearly $33 billion,
04:42
more than double Paramount Skydance's size,
04:45
making the big offer an aggressive swing.
04:48
The move comes just months after Paramount's merger with Skydance,
04:51
led by David Ellison, son of Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison.
04:55
If successful, it would unite two of Hollywood's most iconic studios,
04:59
home to Barbie, Harry Potter, The White Lotus, and Mission Impossible.
05:04
Call it a dose of royal recovery.
05:06
Prince Harry made a surprise visit to Ukraine early today,
05:10
meeting injured troops and promoting his Invictus Games Foundation.
05:15
Harry arrived in Kiev with his team from the Invictus Games,
05:18
the organization he founded after his service in the British Army.
05:22
The goal?
05:22
Help rehabilitate wounded soldiers through sports and competition,
05:26
much like the Paralympics.
05:28
He told The Guardian,
05:29
we can't stop the war,
05:30
but what we can do is do everything we can to help the recovery process.
05:34
The visit is part of a four-day trip to Europe,
05:37
one that also included a rare meeting with his father, King Charles,
05:41
their first face-to-face in nearly two years.
05:44
Harry spent a decade in the army before launching Invictus.
05:47
The need in Ukraine is staggering.
05:50
The Guardian reports some 130,000 people
05:53
have been left with permanent disabilities since the war began.
05:57
Harry says he hopes to draw attention back to the human cost of the conflict
06:00
at a time when much of the world has grown desensitized.
06:04
Finally this morning, we're not just reporting the story, we're listening.
06:08
Today we're kicking off a new segment straight from you.
06:11
Your comments, your questions, fact-checked and answered.
06:15
We scanned YouTube, found the most talked-about moments,
06:18
and now we're following up.
06:19
Let's jump into the biggest ones this week.
06:22
Some asked why a nationwide manhunt spun up for Charlie Kirk's killer,
06:27
but not after school shootings like Evergreen High School in Colorado.
06:31
All right, so here's the deal.
06:31
The difference is the threat.
06:34
Mass shootings usually happen inside.
06:36
Officers rush in, lock down, and neutralize the attacker,
06:39
often because he dies or is captured on scene.
06:43
In Utah, the gunman fired one long-range shot,
06:46
escaped into the community, and left a high-powered rifle behind.
06:50
That triggered a fugitive response.
06:52
FBI, U.S. Marshals, and state police pooling leads,
06:56
releasing images, and offering a big reward.
06:59
Another question to a news story this week,
07:02
the Russian drone provocation in Poland and its airspace.
07:06
A viewer asked if it was a Ukrainian false flag,
07:09
meaning the report is designed to blame Russia.
07:12
Well, here's the answer.
07:13
NATO says more than a dozen Russian drones crossed into Poland.
07:17
Fighters from Poland and the Netherlands shot them down,
07:20
the first time alliance forces took action inside NATO airspace.
07:24
Moscow blamed Ukraine, but analysts called that classic Russian disinformation.
07:31
Attribution here is not speculation.
07:33
It's based on radar, defense logs, and debris analysis shared by allies.
07:38
Next up, raids.
07:39
Those ones in Chicago this week, and likely in the weeks ahead.
07:42
Well, this viewer asked,
07:43
why would legal residents be afraid?
07:46
Here's what we found.
07:47
ICE targets undocumented immigrants with criminal records or deportation orders,
07:52
but can make collateral arrests if others are found.
07:56
Many families are mixed status, so one arrest rattles everybody.
08:01
With protections rolled back by Homeland Security in, quote,
08:04
sensitive areas, including places such as schools, hospitals, and possibly churches,
08:09
fear spreads wider.
08:11
Even legal residents admit they change their routines
08:14
or avoid public places when raids increase.
08:17
By the way, keep dropping comments, asking questions,
08:19
and we'll tackle the biggest ones of the week.
08:21
Thank you very much.
08:22
By the way, don't be the person who says,
08:24
wait, what happened?
08:26
That's me at 2 a.m. when I wake up.
