where was erika kirk when charlie was shot

Erika Kirk has publicly said she was with her mother at a doctor’s appointment when Charlie Kirk was shot and killed.

What Erika has said happened

  • Erika has described getting a frantic phone call during her mom’s medical appointment telling her, “Charlie’s been shot… get the kids, get security.”
  • She says she ran out of the treatment center parking lot in shock and collapsed when she understood what was happening.
  • From there, she was then rushed and flown to Utah, where she was told Charlie had been dead on arrival at the hospital.

Clearing up online confusion

In the weeks after the assassination, some forum posts and social media threads claimed Erika and the children were on-site in Utah and witnessed the shooting, but later reporting clarified that this was not accurate.

Interviews and follow‑up pieces emphasized that she was not at Utah Valley University at the time of the attack; she only arrived later at the hospital in Utah after being flown in.

Many forum discussions now quote her own interviews as the definitive answer to “where was Erika Kirk when Charlie was shot,” pointing back to the doctor’s‑office account as the most reliable version.

TL;DR:
When Charlie Kirk was shot at Utah Valley University, Erika Kirk says she was at her mother’s doctor’s appointment, got the news by phone, and was later flown to Utah, not present at the shooting scene.
