Special Agent Robert Bohls also said that it had been able to track the movements of the “college age” suspect onto the campus at 11:52 a.m. and onto a roof near Kirk’s event, and off campus into a nearby neighborhood after the shooting at 12:20 p.m.
Authorities also said that they had recovered palm prints and foot impressions left by the suspect, and that the weapon had been found hidden in “a wooded area” nearby. Bolt-action rifles are popular for hunting.
Separately, there was an unconfirmed report via conservative pundit Steven Crowder of “anti-fascist,” pro-transgender writing on ammunition recovered near the site.
Bohls also made clear that investigators also found “footwear imprints, a palm print, and forearm imprint” that will be analyzed.
