Two suspects have been arrested in connection with a series of five shootings in the Charlotte, North Carolina area. Carlos Roberto Diaz, 18, and an unnamed 16-year-old juvenile are in custody, with Diaz believed to be in the U.S. illegally after crossing the Southern Border.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Johnny Jennings described the crimes as brazen and a significant risk to the community. Diaz faces multiple charges, including first-degree murder, shooting into an occupied vehicle, and attempted murder. The 16-year-old suspect is charged with first-degree murder, with additional charges expected.
