Man with shotgun tries to rob woman at ATM in University City

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A 23-year-old woman drove up to an ATM in University City at about 8 p.m. Sunday when a man outside of her car pointed a shotgun at her.

She hadn’t used the cash machine at a State Employee Credit Union at the time the assailant approached her.

“I heard a tap on my passenger window and when I looked, he had a shotgun pointed at my passenger window,” Natalie London said.

Her foot was on the brake, so she stomped on the gas and sped away from the Town Center Plaza shopping center.
