Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police have identified 28-year-old Jadarrian Boyd as the victim of a fatal shooting in the Westover Division. The incident, which occurred on Tuesday evening, triggered a swift response from homicide detectives to delve deeper and identify those responsible. Continuing the investigation from the domestic violence assault call on Tuesday, 30-year-old Shakara Linette Sinclair was brought into the Law Enforcement Center (LEC), where she was questioned and subsequently charged with Boyd's murder, as detailed in a statement obtained by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department's Newsroom.
Investigators converged on the 5700 block of Leake Street following the incident report. The late-night discovery of Boyd's gunshot wound led to his pronouncement of death at the scene by MEDIC. As detectives strive to rigorously compile the narrative of Boyd's untimely demise, the public has been implored to come forward with any insights. Detective Haulsee, the lead on this case, and the Homicide Unit have provided contact channels, encouraging direct communication for those potentially holding keys to unanswered questions.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police announced that while Sinclair is in custody at the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office, the investigation is far from over. New evidence or information could impact the case. The public is encouraged to submit anonymous tips through Crime Stoppers, as noted in the CMPD Newsroom. Updates will be provided by the CMPD's Public Affairs Division as the investigation progresses. Anyone with relevant information is urged to come forward and help seek justice.
