Authorities have seized a home surveillance camera that may contain clues as they race to catch a suspected assassin following the shooting death of conservative speaker Charlie Kirk Wednesday.

A person at the home told Fox News Digital that he believes his camera recorded the person of interest in a neighbor’s backyard.

Police and agents from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were seen at the home. One of them climbed a ladder and removed the entire floodlight unit, which included a home security camera.

The FBI released two images of a man in black they were calling a “person of interest” in connection with the shooting. Bohls said they also found a palm print, footprint and imprint from a forearm.

Videos of the shooting show witnesses screamed in horror and ducked for cover after the bullet struck Kirk in the neck. He was rushed to a hospital and later pronounced dead.

Other video circulating online appears to show a dark-clad figure on a rooftop. Authorities said the gunshot came from about 200 yards away, likely from a perch atop the Losee Center building, which is on the opposite side of the courtyard from where Kirk was speaking under a tent.
