Reports by local media say that was a shooting in Uptown Charlotte early Saturday morning that left four people injured.
The incident occurred just before 2 a.m. outside of a business on N. Tryon Street, near W. 10th Street.

All four victims were taken to area hospitals for treatment, according to police.
Police said initial reports indicate that an argument occurred before a man went to his car, retrieved a gun, returned to the area, and started shooting.
That man then left the scene before officers arrived, according to police.
The second shooting happened around 5 a.m. on East Trade Street near South College Street. Medic said one person was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries from that incident.
Meanwhile hours earlier outside of uptown, another person was shot in northeast Charlotte on Ryan Jacobsen Drive, in the Pavilion Village apartment complex off North Tryon Street. That person also sustained life-threatening injuries, according to Medic.
It is unclear what led up to the East Trade Street or Ryan Jacobsen Drive shootings, or if anyone has been arrested in connection to the incidents.
Chip, it’s been that way for 20 years and you know it.
ReplyDeleteWhen will the city and media drop line about “uptown” being safe? It’s a freaking hell hole of the homeless, the crazy, and black thugs roaming the streets
ReplyDeleteWhat about white thugs
DeleteIts the roving gangs of white thugs some only 12 years old with guns that scares me!
DeleteNon-black Gangs in Uptown scare you? Where are they at? French Quarter? The culinary school?

ReplyDeleteI’m sure once Fish gets all the cameras that will solve all the problems, who needs officers we got cameras!
ReplyDeleteThose cameras protect so many people from getting hurt just like at LEC.
