Suspect behind Charlotte shooting spree in the US illegally: report
Two suspects were arrested in connection with a string of five shootings in the Charlotte, North Carolina, area, with one believed to be in the U.S. illegally after crossing the Southern Border, according to reports.
Carlos Roberto Diaz, 18, and an unnamed 16-year-old juvenile have been arrested in connection with the shootings. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police are not searching for any additional suspects."These were brazen crimes. These were crimes that put our community at risk and created a safety hazard for our community," Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Johnny Jennings said in a press conference.
Diaz's charges include one count of first degree murder, two counts of shooting into an occupied vehicle, one count of felony conspiracy to commit murder, five counts of attempted murder, two counts of shooting into an occupied dwelling and one count of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill or inflict serious injury.
The 16-year-old suspect is charged with first degree murder, and additional charges are expected.
Diaz, of Honduras, was in the U.S. illegally when he was arrested, sources told WSOC.
