Democratic lawmakers in Utah reported threats to their offices Thursday following the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk in the state a day prior.

“Multiple members of our caucus and our staff have received intimidating phone calls from strangers following Mr. Kirk’s death. Many of these calls place blame on the Democratic Party and registered Democrats as a whole for shooting,” Utah House Minority Leader Angela Romero said in a statement to the Washington Examiner.
