On the night of January 25, 2024, at about 10:30 p.m., a shooting in the parking lot of an apartment complex on Lake Mist Drive in Charlotte, North Carolina, left three people wounded: 21-year-old Yara Velasquez-Escobar, a 19-year-old man, and a 15-year-old girl. All three were taken to a local hospital with serious injuries. Yara died of her injuries on January 27, 2024; the other two victims survived.

Investigators identified 20-year-old German Pacheco as the suspect. He was arrested on January 31, 2024, and charged with Yara’s murder, two counts of attempted murder, and assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill. Yara was remembered by family and friends at a service held at Iglesia Camino in Monroe, North Carolina.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or knew Yara and can share details that might help the ongoing case?
