BREAKING: Area Surrounding Tyler Robinson’s Family Home Evacuated Due To ‘Concerning Information’

Law enforcement evacuated the area surrounding the family home of Tyler Robinson late on Friday afternoon, according to Fox News. Robinson, 22, is accused of the horrific assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk during an event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.

Investigators have not yet revealed what led to the decision to evacuate the premises, but relayed that the information came from law enforcement operatives stationed directly in front of the residence. A police helicopter is flying over the neighborhood, and multiple journalists from different outlets have reported that they were told to clear the area.

WATCH:

It was only by speaking with his father that 22-year-old Robinson eventually agreed to confess to the murder of Charlie Kirk.

Now, an online trail of political statements and voting records is helping authorities learn more about his parents’ beliefs and how Robinson’s home life may have influenced his alleged actions.

Today, Matthew Robinson, the suspect’s father, works in construction after previously spending 27 years as an officer with his hometown police department in Washington, Utah. Tyler’s mother, Amber, is a healthcare worker whose company contracts with the state to provide care for residents with disabilities.

Matt Robinson was the first to alert authorities — a contact in the U.S. Marshal’s, according to President Donald Trump — and kept his son safe and confined until authorities arrived around 11 p.m. Thursday night to place him in custody.

Both parents are registered Republicans according to online voting records reviewed by the Daily Mail, despite rarely posting about political issues on social media accounts combed through by reporters.

This is a breaking story and will be updated.
