One Person Shot, Killed At Charlotte Food Mart

One person was shot and killed at a food mart late Tuesday afternoon in northeast Charlotte, MEDIC said.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg police responded to the Charlotte Fast Mart on Tom Hunter Road at Reagan Drive at about 5:50 p.m. and closed the area off with crime scene tape.

The shooting victim died at the scene.

“It was a very quick entry, and just an immediate act of violence, and left the area,” said Maj. J.D. Thomas, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.

There was not a robbery or assault that led up to it. The suspect just walked in and shot someone, Thomas said. The victim was not an employee, he said.

“We have a high likelihood of identifying the suspect due to the video quality,” Thomas said.

No additional details have been made available.
