Utah authorities have released more close-up images of a person of interest in the fatal shooting of US President Donald Trump ally and right-wing activist Charlie Kirk on Thursday (local time).
In the latest released images, a man can be seen wearing a black shirt with an American flag, blue jeans and a grey cap. He is also carrying a black backpack.
The Utah department of public safety has urged people to contact the FBI if they have tips.
The FBI has also offered a $100,000 bounty for information that helps crack the case.
The latest photos are of the same person, the FBI released earlier, calling him a "person of interest" in the shooting.

FBI Salt Lake City special agent in charge Robert Bohls earlier said that they have found a "high-powered, bolt-action rifle" along the route the suspect is believed to have used to escape.
Bohls added that authorities have also found a palm print, footprint and imprint from a forearm.
31-year-old Kirk was shot on Wednesday when he was attending an event at Utah University. He was seen sitting under a tent for his signature "Prove Me Wrong" debate when a bullet struck his neck.
Videos captured witnesses screaming in horror and ducking for cover. Kirk was rushed to a hospital and later pronounced dead.
Meanwhile, other videos circulated on social media platforms appear to show a dark figure on a rooftop.
