CHARLOTTE — One person was hurt in a shooting at an arcade in southwest Charlotte on Thursday evening, according to MEDIC.
Channel 9 reporter Jonathan Lowe was on the scene where Charlotte-Mecklenburg police were investigating the shooting off South Tryon Street near Remount Road after 7 p.m.
MEDIC said one person was taken from the scene with minor injuries.
Witnesses told Channel 9 the shooting happened inside the South Side Arcade and the business owner may have been the victim.
“We brought him outside, sat him on the floor, I look to make sure he wasn’t bleeding and when I looked at him he was bleeding from the ear,” said a man who works at a nearby mini mart in the strip mall.
