India, Sept. 11 -- A "high-powered bolt-action rifle" was discovered in the woods near Utah Valley University during the search for Charlie Kirk's assassin, FBI agent Robert Bohls announced at a Thursday morning press conference. Authorities believe the rifle is likely the weapon used in the shooting of the conservative activist. Investigators also found shoe impressions and a palm print at the scene.

Bohls said shooter was not hiding in woods where rifle was found.

"We walked through those woods and secured it," Bohls said at a news conference. "As to the community, I can tell you that this was a targeted event. We don't believe the community is at risk. However, we are exhausting every resource to find him, and we will do so."
