CHARLOTTE — Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police arrested a 19-year-old in connection to a March shooting in Ballantyne.

A good Samaritan and business owner performed CPR on the person who was shot, but did not want to talk about it on camera.
The victim was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries. Their identity has not been released.
On Monday, police said Daniel Carter, 19, was arrested and charged in the case.
The shooting happened a few minutes before a girls softball team arrived to eat dinner.
“It was very scary, I’ve never seen a lot like this before,” said player Izabella Dellicolli. “I was just hoping everybody is OK.”
“I’m very surprised actually,” said her mother, Angela Dellicolli. “This is a nice area so you don’t really expect that to happen here.”
Police said the victim and the suspects agreed to meet at the shopping center, but that the shopping center itself was not connected to the crime.
This is an ongoing investigation.
