The person of interest in the Charlie Kirk assassination appeared to be a man on a mission, but he may have had a moment of clarity that briefly stopped him minutes before the fatal shooting of the Turning Point USA founder.
TMZ obtained new footage of the man dressed in black limping past the front of a home in Orem, UT, at 11:51 AM Wednesday — as he headed for the Utah Valley University campus.
The man seems to be concealing a long gun under his pants as he goes past the house and turns right at the property line, starting down a grassy path toward the campus.
Suddenly, the man stops and maneuvers back to the street, seemingly having second thoughts about going to the campus. But those feelings quickly fade as he swings around again and walks toward the university. The FBI says the man entered the campus grounds one minute later at 11:52 AM.

TMZ also obtained similar footage earlier in the day … showing the man in the same outfit on the same street hobbling past a neighboring house.
Another of our clips captured the man after the shooting at 12:29 PM — just 6 minutes after Charlie was shot and as the campus was being cleared. You see students walking in the opposite direction, and in the background, there’s someone dressed in black — who appears to be the person of interest — dashing through a backyard.

During a press conference Wednesday night, the FBI released more footage of the possible shooter, running and jumping off the roof of the building where he allegedly fired a rifle shot that struck Charlie in the neck while he was on stage taking questions from a large crowd.

After the shooting, the man in black ran through a parking lot, and in the direction of the neighborhood where he was earlier recorded limping past the homes.
