Charlotte’s seventh killing in five days occurred outside a Wells Fargo bank branch early Thursday in the 4100 block of North Tryon Street.

Detectives were called at 1:40 a.m. to the site near the intersection of Sugar Creek Road, and found “one male subject inside of a vehicle with a gunshot wound,” Charlotte-Mecklenburg police said in a press release.

A second person was found nearby with a gunshot wound, and was taken to the hospital by Medic with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the release.
