UNION COUNTY, NC (WBTV) -
A man is wanted after four people were shot and one man was killed in a Union County shooting early Sunday morning.

Thoughts? Adding as a breaking news case since I consider what could have been a quadruple homicide makes Brooks a very dangerous alleged murderer. According to reports, there was also a (seemingly unrelated) shooting where three people were shot and one person was killed the prior week in Monroe, so it's been a very tragic month for the city: www.charlotteobserver.com/latest-news/article210110844.html
As far as I can tell, Brooks is still at large as of this posting date (5/1/2018), but hopefully that status changes soon.
