Washington, D.C: Conservative activist and Trump ally Charlie Kirk, 31, was shot dead during a Utah college event.

The FBI has released CCTV of a suspect in sunglasses and a cap, announced a $100,000 reward, and said it is investigating over 7,000 leads.

Amid the tragedy, misinformation spread online as AI chatbots gave false or conflicting reports.

Perplexity wrongly claimed Kirk was alive, while Musk’s Grok dismissed a genuine video of the shooting as satire, fueling confusion.
