The man who allegedly shot Charlie Kirk has been identified as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.

Robinson was partly turned in by a youth pastor. Tyler had allegedly confessed to the murder to his father, who urged his son to turn himself in. Our sources say Tyler initially refused, saying he'd rather commit suicide, but then changed his mind. We're told the father then contacted the youth pastor -- who also works with the U.S. Marshals -- for assistance. Our sources say the pastor then called the Marshals and the FBI.

Robinson lives in Utah and has been on the run since Kirk's assassination Wednesday.

Authorities have shared new video of the suspected gunman who murdered Charlie Kirk Wednesday fleeing from the roof of a 1-story building at Utah Valley University.

He then casually walks off and crosses the street, eventually moving to a wooded area where his high-powered rifle was later recovered by investigators.

Utah Department of Public Safety Commissioner Beau Mason also revealed an enhanced version of an image released earlier in the day, making sure to note the shooter's all-black outfit and shirt that features an American flag and an Eagle, plus his hat with a triangle on it.

The person of interest in the Charlie Kirk assassination walked by several neighborhood cameras -- as the FBI said -- and TMZ has video that appears to show him walking toward the Utah campus where Kirk was shot ... while concealing his weapon.

After the shooting -- at 12:29 PM, just 6 minutes after Charlie was shot and as campus is being cleared -- you see students walking in the opposite direction, and in the background, in an unpaved area behind some homes, there's someone dressed in black running through a backyard.

Everyone else in the video is calmly walking down the paved road away from the scene.

Charlie Kirk's alleged shooter scrawled political messages on the equipment brought to the murder scene ... expressing support for the transgender community while making antifascist remarks.

In the message, the ATF claims "All cartridges have engraved wording on them, expressing transgender and anti-fascist ideology." It does not get more specific as to what the messages say.
