The shooter was never arrested and never faced any charges thanks to a Facebook Live video where he claims he was robbed and acted in self defense during a Hood Uber transaction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.charlottealertsnews.com\/.image\/c_fit,h_600,w_600\/MTgyODA2Nzc3ODQ1MjYxNjY0\/1untitkled.jpg\"><\/figure>\n<p>On March 14, 2021&nbsp;Milton was shot and killed on Delta Lake Drive Charlotte, NC. Milton had booked a ride via Hood Uber, the driver arrived to pick up Milton.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The driver then says he had mace sprayed on him during a robbery attempt, allegedly&nbsp; by Milton. That is when the driver shot and killed Milton. The driver claims self defense.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Immediately after the shooting, the driver created a Facebook Live video that captured video of the scene and Milton convulsing and collapsing to the ground after being shot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Milton died on the scene.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Facebook Live video shows the driver clearly had been sprayed with a substance that altered his speech and eye sight. The driver can be seen foaming at the mouth, and saying on the video that,&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;He tried to rob me, he sprayed me with mace, I didn&#8217;t want to have to do him like that.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The shooter was interviewed and was cooperative throughout the investigation. Investigators got a hold of the video and eventually believed the shooter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The case has now been classified as a justified homicide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Mecklenburg County District Attorney&#8217;s Office reviewed the case and concurred with police detectives not to charge anyone in this case.&nbsp;It takes alot for prosecutors to not go after a murder trial.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The power of video just got a man away from being charged with murder during a Hood Uber ride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[497,26,638,505,640,641],"class_list":["post-9793","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-deadly-shooting","tag-guns","tag-hood-uber","tag-prosecutors","tag-ride-sharing","tag-uber"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9793","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9793"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9793\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9793"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9793"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tender-hodgkin.62-151-180-206.plesk.page\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9793"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
