Saturday, Sunday and Monday night CMPD continues to respond to shootings and in this case another homicide.
As of this morning CMPD Officers were still searching for the person who shot two people in northwest Charlotte Monday night, killing one of them.
The shooting happened during a party around 9:30 p.m. on Lakewood Avenue near Grant Street. That’s just off Rozelles Ferry Road not too far from Interstate 85.

Police believe a fight happened during some type of celebration and that led to shots being fired.
After the shooting, the scene became chaotic scene as people were trying to figure out what happened.

“There’s a lot of unknowing, people not knowing what’s actually going on, so emotions were running high trying to find out if loved ones were involved or not,” CMPD Maj. Torri Tellis said.
The name of the deceased victim has not been released at this time.
CMPD investigators believe this is isolated, but they are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at (704) 334-1600. Callers can remain anonymous.
CP is guessing that because this is just an "isolated" murder it deserved only a moderate alert status. In other words its da hood.
We are very patriotic here in Charlotte. People set off fireworks every day.
ReplyDelete“Celebration leading to shots being fired”….. doesn’t every celebration end in shots being fired? Thought that was how we rolled here in Charlotte?
ReplyDeleteLiving uptown I've become used to the random gunfire after dark it is not just a nightly thing it is nearly hourly. Looking across the RB Park to Truist Ball Park the shots come from nearby to down near 277 and then north near Poplar and 10th a lot.
ReplyDeleteThe echos make it had to tell when they are close easier when it seems to be across 77 in 3 rd Ward.
I love Metro, but it has cooled down over the years. The real attention needs to be on the Rock and UC. They are more hood and more killings.
ReplyDeleteDamn all those rich white folks moving in and ruining things!
DeleteWhere was the ritual murder by neighbor in east Charlotte Easter weekend? Any information on that one?
ReplyDeleteCharlotte journalists are non existent. She gets gutted, tongue removed, table broken into crosses, salt poured out, and she bleeds out into the apartment below….and zero follow up. That needs a Dateline Episode
ReplyDeleteIf this is true then I want Detective Diekhaus on this case, immediately.
DeleteWas the Mexican arrested for this murder here legally or illegally? Perhaps with the way things are going he was legally here illegally. Was this murder done just for her car?
DeleteDid WSOC do a story on it? I only trust them and Cedar.
