Given the lack of clarity given in description, Id personally recommend OP state they will wait at least a day or two to see how clear of information we have at that point.

I've got a YES position right now-which is my bias-but seems obvious this shouldn't resolve too quickly based solely off timestamps on live threads during an ongoing situation.

AP Source confirms he was alive and in "critical condition" at 12:49 PM: https://apnews.com/live/utah-valley-university-charlie-kirk-shooting-updates

Rep. MTG confirms he's alive at 1:00PM PST https://x.com/RepMTG/status/1965868073023647777

1:47PM PST he's confirmed to pass

he died under the tent, not at the hospital. He was unconscious before he hit the floor. A doctor just pronounced him at the hospital because they have to be the ones to do it

@OwenPerry You got a source for that?

@OwenPerry unconscious ≠ dead

@OwenPerry Correct. The initial blood spurt shows that he must have dies very quickly.

@Luxeed analysis from multiple medical professionals on social media and the very graphic and detailed videos - educated guesses at this point.

@NiccoloVe zomg is that the real Nico 😃

@SaiVazquez ahahah yeah

Does this resolve to the coroner’s time of death? Who exactly is the authority for this?

You mean is he currently dead? Or does the time of death matter?

@SteveBright time of death matters

@SteveBright read the description

Oh man, we're never going to find the exact time of death are we

@Marnix also he's dead. AP just confirmed

@Marnix https://apnews.com/live/utah-valley-university-charlie-kirk-shooting-updates?utm_source=onesignal&utm_medium=push&utm_campaign=2025-09-10-Breaking+News

@Marnix it would come during a trial

@Marnix That’s not a confirmation of death, just a confirmation that Trump said he died

@Marnix AP is just parroting Trump, come on. That's not AP confirming anything.

@bens I don't know. I feel like they'd hold off on publishing his obituary if there was ambiguity https://apnews.com/article/charlie-kirk-shooting-utah-university-republicans-8357c3d102de09e3320fde761258131a

Charlie Kirk, who helped build support for Trump among young people, dies after campus shooting

Charlie Kirk, who rose from a teenage conservative campus activist to a top podcaster, culture warrior and ally of President Donald Trump, has been shot and killed.

@Marnix I meant the time of death would come during a trial

@bens meant to reply to Isaac

They don't take you into surgery if you reach the hospital dead

@Luxeed sure but do you trust the source to know the difference between "surgery" and "the ER"

@bens yes
