Charlie Kirk's killer has still not been caught after more than 24 hours of searching.
Images and videos released by law enforcement from Thursday afternoon through into Friday morning show the "person of interest" wearing a black jumper with an eagle and the American flag draped over it.
The man can also be seen wearing a pair of blue jeans, black sunglasses and a black cap.
Later footage shows the suspected gunman running across a roof and into a car park before fleeing into nearby woodland.
Investigators also recovered a hunting rifle filled with ammunition engraved with "transgender and anti-fascist ideology", according to an internal law enforcement memo.
Mr Kirk, 31, was shot dead on Wednesday during a speech at a university campus in Utah.
President Donald Trump has revealed he will attend the activist's funeral in Arizona after his body was escorted by Vice President JD Vance to state capital Phoenix aboard Air Force Two.
"I spoke to Erika, his wife, and we had a long talk, and she’s devastated," Mr Trump told reporters at the White House.
"She's absolutely devastated, as you can imagine."
The First Lady, Melania Trump, said last night: "Charlie's children will be raised with stories instead of memories, photographs instead of laughter, and silence where their father's voice should have echoed.
"Charlie Kirk's life should serve as a symbolic reminder that compassionate awareness elevates family, love, and country."

Writing for GB News members, Lee wrote: "When ideas are met with violence rather than counterarguments, the foundations of democracy weaken.

At the moment he was shot, Mr Kirk, a staunch advocate of the Constitution's Second Amendment right to bear arms, was being questioned by an audience member about gun violence.
Former Utah congressman Jason Chaffetz who was in attendance at the rally, spoke about the moment Mr Kirk was shot.
He told Fox News: "The first question was about religion. He went on for about 15-20 minutes. Second question, interestingly, was about transgender shooters, mass shooters, and in the midst of that, the shot rang out.

Political commentator Matthew Dowd has been sacked from his role with US broadcaster MSNBC over comments he made about Charlie Kirk.
Rebecca Kutler, the network's president, said Mr Dowd "made comments that were inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable".
He had been "on-air" during MSNBC's coverage of the shooting when he was asked by host Katy Tur to comment on "the environment in which a shooting like this happens".
He said: "We don't know any of the details of this yet, we don't know if this was a supporter shooting their guns off in celebration."
Mr Dowd then described Mr Kirk as "one of the most divisive younger figures" who was "constantly sort of pushing this hate speech... aimed at certain groups".
"I always go back to hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions," Mr Dowd said. "You can't stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and not expect awful actions to take place - and that's the unfortunate environment we're in."
The sacked commentator then apologised for his "tone and words", saying: "I in no way intended for my comments to blame Kirk for this horrendous attack.
"Let us all come together and condemn violence of any kind."

Charlie Kirk's last message to his followers: A call for change - and fury at 'savage monster' who killed Ukrainian Iryna Zarutzka
Charlie Kirk's final message to his followers on social media was a call for change following the death of Iryna Zarutzka, the Ukrainian refugee stabbed to death on a train in August.
"If we want things to change, it's 100 per cent necessary to politicize the senseless murder of Iryna Zarutska because it was politics that allowed a savage monster with 14 priors to be free on the streets to kill her," he wrote.
US Attorney General Pam Bondi has now unleashed a federal prosecution against Brown Jr.
The alleged killer, 34 and homeless, has a history of mental health problems, arrests and convictions. He had already been charged with first-degree murder in North Carolina.
