Charlie Kirk’s tour to universities across the country is continuing after his death, and Utah State University is looking to increase security ahead of Turning Point USA’s stop in Logan.
According to a statement from the university, the Sept. 30 event will be an indoor ticketed event, though a venue hasn’t been finalized.
Security was already being put together for the event before Kirk’s death, but now that there are heightened safety concerns, USU said its department of public safety would continue collaborating with local, state, and federal partners to ensure appropriate security measures and protocols.
That includes threat assessment, detailed security planning, crowd management, close protection for the speaker, and readiness for crisis response.
Conservative influencer and activist Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at a speaking event at Utah Valley University earlier this month. 22-year-old Tyler Robinson has been charged with his murder.
