Michael Anthony King, a 25-year-old African American man, was killed on March 18, 2020, in the parking lot of a convenience store at Nations Ford Road and West Arrowood Road in Charlotte, North Carolina. He was found with a gunshot wound and pronounced dead at the scene; the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department opened a homicide investigation.

Five days later, on March 23, 2020, investigators identified and arrested 27-year-old Karrington Paige. Paige was charged with murder, attempted murder, possession of a firearm by a felon, and four counts of shooting into an occupied property. The arrest was carried out without incident by the Violent Criminal Apprehension Team, and Paige was transferred to Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s custody.

Detectives continue to gather information and the public has been asked to come forward with tips. Does anyone have information about Michael, his movements that night, or witnesses who were near that intersection on March 18, 2020?
