Violent Fugitive Apprehended in Charlotte

A violent fugitive wanted in Indiana and Kentucky was arrested in Charlotte last night. Melvin Carson, 23, is suspected of robbing several gas stations, liquor stores and other businesses in the Evansville, Indiana & Owensboro, Kentucky areas.

During a robbery of a liquor store, Carson jumped behind the counter and brutally attacked the clerk. (Watch Video) When Carson robbed a Chevron gas station, he hit the owner in the face, breaking his glasses.

Hopefully he wasn't in Charlotte long enough to claim more victims.
