Support for those affected by the Utah Valley University Shooting
Office of the Governor – Governor Spencer J. Cox
September 11, 2025
Governor Spencer J. Cox released the following statement regarding the tragic shooting at Utah Valley University:
“I just got off the phone with President Trump. Working with the FBI and Utah law enforcement, we will bring to justice the individual responsible for this tragedy. Abby and I are heartbroken. We are praying for Charlie’s wife, daughter, and son.
I have ordered the flags of the United States of America and the great state of Utah to be flown at half-staff on all state facilities in recognition of the tragic passing of Charlie Kirk, who was shot and killed this afternoon while speaking at Utah Valley University.
Flags should be lowered to the half-staff position and remain in the half-staff position until sunset on Sunday, September 14, 2025.
I extend this invitation to all private citizens, businesses, and other organizations.”
