Hundreds gathered for a candlelight vigil for Charlie Kirk at the Idaho Capitol in Boise following the shooting of the Turning Point USA founder at an event in Utah. The protest turned violent when a man on a scooter shouted expletives about Kirk while speeding through mourners, sparking a fight that ended with police intervention. Witnesses described attendees confronting the individual before law enforcement arrived to restore order.

Idaho News 6 reported that flags at the statehouse were flown at half staff, echoing President Donald Trump’s directive after Kirk’s death. Supporters shared stories, lit candles, and observed a moment of silence during the event. A reporter on site noted the disruption caused by the scooter incident, which occurred as the gathering was underway.

Vigils honoring Kirk were held nationwide, with conservative groups and leaders organizing events to mourn his death and condemn political violence. Turning Point USA chapters across colleges staged similar gatherings, while faith communities in Arizona and Washington planned prayer services. Politicians and activists urged unity, emphasizing healing amid the tragedy.
