Police bodycam footage of Tyler Robinson from three years ago surfaces

 September 20, 2025

All sorts of new information is coming out regarding the background of Tyler Robinson, the accused assassin who took the life of conservative activist and loving father Charlie Kirk.

According to the New York Post, newly released police bodycam footage of Robinson surfaced this week. The footage was from an incident that happened three years prior to shooting Kirk at a Utah university earlier this month. 

What was especially interesting about the footage was the fact that Robinson was wearing essentially the same attire he wore on the day he shot Kirk.

At the time of the incident, which included Robinson talking to local police about a car accident he was in, he was only 19 years old.

What's going on?

The bodycam footage was mostly Robinson discussing with police the car accident he was in with a Ford sedan.

The Post noted:

The video, obtained by Scripps News, shows the then-19-year-old Robinson calmly speaking with police after crashing his silver Audi into a Ford sedan making a left turn at an intersection in St. George, Utah.

“As I was coming through, he turned in, and I T-boned into the side of him," Robinson said in the nearly eight-minute video, which has never before been released.

The outlet added:

Robinson, wearing a gray shirt, black shades and a gray hat, was driving with his brother in the passenger seat; both, along with the other driver, walked away uninjured.

The luxury car, leaking oil, was shown in the footage with its front hood smashed in.

"Just as I left the house, I put oil in it, just topped it off," he said, joking with the responding police officer. The video also showed Robinson's mother showing up with insurance documents in the wake of the crash.

Social media responds

Users across social media weighed in on the video, which is the first time the public has heard Robinson's voice.

"I thought it was weird that his response when the cop said his car was leaking was that he had just topped off his oil before leaving his house? Is that a thing? Genuinely asking," one X user wrote.

Another X user wrote, "He was a normie before he went to college an a full academic scholarship. Within a semester he was radicalized."

It'll be interesting to see if any additional footage of Robinson emerges in the coming days and weeks.
