CHARLOTTE — Police say a suspect has been charged with murder in connection with a death investigation that happened last month in east Charlotte.
According to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, 23-year-old Alejandro Jose Sequeira was arrested on Thursday and booked into custody in Alexandria, Virginia.
The police department says Sequeira is charged in connection with the death of 21-year-old Justin Carache-Soto on April 12.
