The unnamed 16-year-old juvenile was transferred into the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
Both are being held pending additional bond hearings.
Based on the investigation, detectives believe the 16-year-old suspect intended to engage in additional violent criminal activity. Due to the great proactive work by officers and Homicide detectives, they likely prevented any additional harm to innocent victims.
The time frame, proximity, and evidence collected led detectives to believe the five shooting incidents that occurred between the hours of 1:00 a.m. and 1:30 a.m. on Tuesday, July 9 were linked. Forensic lab testing has since confirmed at least three of those incidents are linked. Lab testing will continue to determine if the additional incidents are linked.
Great work CMPD! Now go check on each other!
ReplyDeleteTell us about the other killer. 16? White? Hispanic? Black?
ReplyDeleteI'd guess he is also an illegal. Thanks Joe Biden.
ReplyDeleteHmm. Why don’t the whites be killing people as much as minorities
ReplyDeleteI have so many questions and not enough answers at this point.
ReplyDeleteI'm just glad CMPD has the resources to get these children off the street, at least until the judges let them go.
These illiterate morons are all over Charlotte. They have the IQ of roaches and are nothing but a waste of air and space. They have taken over South Boulevard and Central Avenue. Time to clean up Charlotte.
ReplyDeleteMotherfucker..your BLET lets you fail 7 times and retry another class. Don’t call us stupid around here.
DeleteYep stupid beaner go home.
DeleteIf you are a cop at CMPD then you are kind of stupid though
DeleteThey tried to get my boy trumpy but forgot he stay whippin that dumpy
ReplyDeleteTrump shooter was just a psycho but the USSS team looked totally unqualified. I'd bet Biden saw to it the entire team was DEI qualified only.
ReplyDeleteI said that about the girl in the group. She was chubby and wearing glasses on a cloudy day. You can’t trust people like that.
DeleteYeah! Fuck the chubbies!
DeleteLet me explain the fat cops for you…
DeleteThis job isn’t great and people try to leave. The fat people are less desirable candidates for jobs. Thus, they don’t get hired other places. Plus, many cops stay seated all day long. This job is not for hard workers.
Some cops feel sad about what they see so they eat food.
DeleteAgree that the "secret service" team looked a bit off, but did you catch the US Marshalls pin the one dude was wearing? Wow, thats interesting..?!?!
Delete832…what?
DeleteWhat? The government has employees that can’t protect the president?
ReplyDeleteI just hope they don’t commit suicide like the cops from the DC raid of the capitol building.
415: they tried to say the Trump supporters killed the Capitol cops, but it was just suicide that killed them like Hidey Hole Guy at the warehouse.
DeleteHEY!! Don't bad mouth my Hidey Hole. It's comfortable here!
DeleteI've seen many "chubbies" take down protestors or ugly fans twice their size. Just depends on the work ethic.
ReplyDeleteUsss team looked about as coordinated as the raid where Josh was killed by friendly fire. This is what happens when training and competency take a backseat to equity and inclusion.
ReplyDelete100% agree
DeleteDon't pick on the Golden Corral girls! They have to have a little extra chub around the waist to prevent holster rub.
DeleteWe can’t put pretty women in the office or you motherfuckers will create a lawsuit.
