CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Police arrested and charged a second man on Tuesday, weeks after the shooting death of 28-year-old Deante Brown.

Officers were called to Atrium Health’s Carolinas Medical Center-Main around 5:30 p.m. on Sept. 6 after Brown showed up with a gunshot wound. He died a short time later.

Gaskin has also been charged with murder.
