Security footage captured the suspected shooter accessing the roof before the incident.

The FBI released images of a 'person of interest,' leading to the suspect's arrest. Kirk's death has sparked outrage across the political spectrum, with calls to curb political violence. President Trump has posthumously honored Kirk with the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his contributions to conservative causes.
