CMPD says no charges anticipated for CATS driver involved in shootout - Thursday, June 22

The Charlotte Area Transit System bus driver, who police said got into a shootout with a passenger last month, will likely not face charges at this time.The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department shared that information Wednesday, noting the expectation of no charges came after consultation with Mecklenburg District Attorney's Office.Surveillance video from the Charlotte Area Transit System shows the May 18 shooting. Authorities said the incident occurred after Omarri Tobias, a passenger, asked David Fullard, the driver, to make an unscheduled stop as the bus traveled through Charlotte's Steele Creek neighborhood. When Fullard refused, Tobias can be heard on the recording taunting Fullard, who continues to drive. Then, Tobias can be seen pulling a gun, and moments later, Fullard pulls out his own gun. Gunfire is then exchanged as the bus drives off the roadway.READ MORE: https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/crime/cmpd-no-charges-anticipated-cats-driver-shootout-passenger/275-7a2150f1-09a3-4c61-8e84-1da593dbe808
