Lance Twiggs, 22, lived with suspect Tyler Robinson in a three-bedroom apartment in Saint George, Utah. He shared Robinson’s messages about hiding a gun used in the Utah Valley University shooting, police records reveal. “After he was with the police, he’s been at his house, and there’s no way for us to contact him,” Twiggs’s grandfather said.
Investigators searched the apartment for hours, taking bags of evidence and a computer. Neighbors said the two roommates were quiet and kept to themselves. One described Robinson as “acting kind of nervous and scared” days before the attack.
Authorities have not confirmed a motive, but Utah’s governor said Robinson was “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.” He was arrested Thursday and faces murder, obstruction, and firearm charges.
This case has shaken the Utah community and Kirk’s supporters nationwide. What do you think drove this young man to violence? Share your thoughts.
