VIDEO: A man was shot and killed inside an ambulance in the parking lot of a south Charlotte Days Inn early Wednesday morning. The incident happened around 4 a.m. in the Days Inn/Azteca Mexican Restaurant parking lot on E Woodlawn Road near Old Pineville Road. Charlotte-Mecklenburg police say officers were called to the Days Inn regarding a disturbance, where they were met by five to six people. Medic responded to the area after one of the men reported having shortness of breath. Police say Medic was with the victim in the back of an ambulance when he requested a friend to come assist him. Medic denied the person entry into the ambulance, and that’s when police say the suspect left, came back and shot the victim “several times.” Medic tried to treat the man but he was pronounced dead on scene.
