The FBI and Utah officials have released a new video showing the Charlie Kirk shooting suspect fleeing the scene of the crime. He's seen running across the roof and dropping over the edge before entering a wooded area. The FBI is offering a $100,00 reward for information.

We go to South Sudan where the first vice president Riek Machar has been charged with murder, treason and crimes against humanity for his alleged involvement in attacks by an ethnic militia against federal forces in March.
