Police Release Footage of St. George Crash Involving Tyler Robinson
SCRIPPS NEWS — Authorities have released previously unseen police video footage of Tyler Robinson, 19, involved in a crash prior to the alleged shooting of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk. The incident occurred in St. George, Utah, in 2022.
The video shows Robinson, driving an Audi, colliding with a Ford sedan at an intersection. Both drivers were uninjured and neither received citations. According to police, Robinson reported that the Ford was making a left turn when the collision occurred.
Robinson appeared cooperative during the investigation, informing the officer that he had just added oil to his vehicle and was driving with his brother. He contacted his mother to provide insurance information, which she later supplied at the scene.
Robinson now faces multiple charges, including aggravated murder in the case of Kirk's death. Prosecutors announced plans to pursue the death penalty. During his initial court appearance this week, Robinson wore an apparent anti-suicide smock and provided only his name. Court records indicate he had previously threatened self-harm; parents and a family friend were involved in his surrender.
This incident follows ongoing developments in the murder case, further detailed in related stories available online.
