Turning Point USA held its first event in Utah since the assassination of founder and CEO Charlie Kirk.
Tuesday’s event was held at Utah State University in Logan, Utah. The college is located approximately 121 miles north of where Kirk was murdered on Sept. 10, at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. However, the event did not come without a security scare. A suspicious device was found before the event started. An evacuation at the college was ordered for precautionary measures, the university said. Local law enforcement officials investigated the device, and the bomb squad was dispatched to detonate it. An “all-clear” was given hours before the event began.
