CEDAR CITY, UTAH: Newly released surveillance video shows Charlie Kirk's alleged murderer, Tyler Robinson, at a gas station in Utah.

The footage was taken just one day after the deadly shooting.

In the video, Robinson can be seen stopping to refuel his car, while police across the state were already searching for the gunman at the time.

The video is one of the first clear looks at his movements during the manhunt.

Tyler Robinson’s movements tracked through surveillance footage

According to police records from Cedar City, the video shows Robinson driving a gray Dodge Challenger into a Maverik gas station.

The stop happened around 7:15 am on Thursday, September 11.

He got out of his car, filled up the tank, and used his card to pay.

This was less than 24 hours after conservative firebrand Charlie Kirk was shot and killed while speaking at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University.

Police were initially called to the station after receiving a tip that Robinson might have disposed of evidence in a nearby trash can.

When officers reviewed the footage, they confirmed he didn't throw anything away.

The incident report describes Robinson exiting his vehicle, using a credit card to pay, and filling his car with gas before calmly driving away.

"Once the tank was full, he removed the nozzle, closed the gas cap, got back into his vehicle and left the gas station," Cedar City Police said.

At no point did he approach or use the station’s trash bins.



 

The video shows Robinson wearing a maroon colored shirt and a dark hat.

This particular attire exactly matched his appearance in earlier footage from the Utah Valley University campus, where Kirk was killed.

The video is seen as one of the first clear glimpses of Robinson after the shooting.

It also offers an early look at his alleged getaway route from Orem to St George as police rushed to track him down, 250 miles away from the shooting site.
