Police were collecting evidence, trying to piece together what sparked a mass shooting at the tail end of a weekend that had been full of peaceful celebrations marking Juneteenth.

Candles, balloons, crosses and flowers are huddled in clusters, objects remembering the four victims who lost their lives. A mobile Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department tower is parked nearby.

"I saw an article and they were talking about 'a massacre,' and that’s pretty much what we should label this as." [link to www.wfae.org (secure)] Charlottean here.
