SALISBURY, N.C. — On Friday, the Salisbury Police Department and the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation executed a search warrant at a residence on South Ellis Street.

During the search on South Ellis Street, officers found 19-year-old Tashawn Robinson, who was wanted in connection with the shooting at Tabernacle Street on May 13.

Robinson had outstanding warrants for robbery, kidnapping, and assault with a deadly weapon and was also wanted in Cabarrus County for unrelated robbery charges.

While searching the residence, officers recovered a stolen firearm, leading to additional charges against Robinson for possession of a stolen firearm.

He was subsequently transported to the Rowan County Detention Center, where he is being held without bond.
