As we were busy enjoying time with family and friends over the holidays, CMPD homicide detectives were busy investigating two different murders that occurred in Charlotte.
On Christmas Eve, officers responded to 2732 Old Steele Creek Road around 10:30 pm in reference to shots fired in the area. Upon arrival, police found 27-year old I.D. Jenkins suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Shortly after midnight on Christmas morning, police were called to the Sommerset Apartments at 1030 Tara Lane, in reference to a shooting. Upon arrival, officers located 30-year old Santiago Amaro, who was pronounced deceased on the scene.
