A Texas State University student who reenacted Charlie Kirk’s assassination at a memorial being held in his honor has been caught and ‘is no longer’ affiliated with the school.

Video shared on social media shows the unidentified man mocking and imitating Kirk’s death and spitting near people who were attending an on-campus memorial in in San Marcos, Texas on Monday.

After widespread backlash, TXST president Dr. Kelly Damphousse issued a statement confirming the school had tracked down the student involved and taken swift action against him.

‘The individual is no longer a student at TXST,’ she said.

‘I will not tolerate behavior that mocks, trivializes, or promotes violence on our campuses. It is antithetical to our TXST values.’

Dr Damphousse said federal law prevents her from sharing any further details about the discussions which led to the student’s disenrollment.

She also slammed critics who had suggested ‘that the individual’s actions represent the beliefs of TXST students in general or those of specific student organizations.’

The student’s vile acts appeared to be targeting members of Kirk’s nonprofit organization Turning Point USA, which was hosting the memorial.

Eyewitness video shared online shows the student standing up in front of a statue before stating ‘Hi, my name is Charlie Kirk’. He could then be seen confronting TPUSA members during the memorial and cursing as he slaps himself in the neck.

Dr Damphousse said insinuations that the student’s behavior was widely supported on campus were ‘unfair to our student body, and they cause some of our students to feel unsafe.

‘Just as the behavior in the video was reprehensible, attempts to spread the blame onto innocent students are also unacceptable. The actions of one person do not reflect our entire community or the individuals in it,’ the university president went on.

‘This is a time for calm, for measured response and dialogue, and for keeping ourselves and each other safe. As always, the safety of our campus community is at the heart of every decision that I make.

‘We must not allow this situation to get the best of us. We can disagree on issues, but we cannot allow ourselves to be pulled into a situation where we are adding to the anxiety on our campus. That is not who we are, and that is not who we will become.’

Texas Governor Gregg Abbott had led calls for disciplinary action to be taken against the student and urged the university to ‘expel this student immediately’, alleging such ‘conduct is not accepted at our schools’.

‘Charlie Kirk got hit in the neck, b***h,’ the student shouted, before repeating the slap and vibrating his body as if to mimic recoiling from a bullet’s impact, the video shows.

He then climbed a nearby statue and repeated the action yet again, this time dropping to the ground after the vibrating motions.

The student could be heard saying ‘f*** that n*****’ as he walked away from a gathering crowd of shocked attendees.

Abbott then shared a video of the interaction on his X account, urging Texas State to take action against the student.

‘Mocking assassination must have consequences,’ the governor insisted.

The incident came after a student at Texas Tech University, nearly 400 miles away from Texas State’s campus, was caught on camera mocking Kirk’s assassination and gleefully dancing in the wake of his death.

Students at the school were holding a vigil for Kirk last Friday when Camryn Giselle Booker was filmed jumping up and down and chanting ‘F*** y’all homie dead, he got shot in the head.’

Booker, 18, then confronted fellow student Cameron Payne, who was holding a sign that read ‘Rest in peace Charlie Kirk’.

Payne claims Booker got in his face, shouted at him and then slapped the lid of his hat, KAMC reports.

Police officers stepped in to separate the pair. Booker was then arrested for simple assault and transported to the Lubbock County Jail.

She is also no longer enrolled at Texas Tech – a response that Abbott has praised.

In the days since Kirk’s assassination, candlelight vigils and memorials have popped up across the nation, honoring the late conservative activist.

Counter-protesters have descended on the memorials and praised Kirk’s death online.

Kirk was gunned down on September 10 as he spoke with students at Utah Valley University and died shortly after.

Earlier on Tuesday, prosecutors brought a murder charge against accused assassin Tyler Robinson, who could face the death penalty if convicted.

Prosecutors outlined evidence including Robinson’s alleged text message confession to his partner and a note left beforehand that said he had the opportunity to kill one of the nation’s leading conservative voices ‘and I’m going to take it.’

Robinson, 22, has also been charged with felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury and obstruction of justice.

While authorities claim Robinson hasn’t been cooperating with investigators, they say his family and friends have been talking.

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said over the weekend that those who know Robinson say his politics shifted left in recent years and that he spent a lot of time in the ‘dark corners of the internet’.

FBI Director Kash Patel told Fox News on Monday that when Robinson was asked why he would kill the conservative influencer, he responded: ‘Some hatred cannot be negotiated with.
