High Speed Pursuit Suspects Taken Into Custody

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Two suspects were taken into custody after speeding through Charlotte while on the run from police.

The incident started shortly after a shooting was reported in west Charlotte.  A vehicle was seen in the area driving erratically.  A police helicopter followed the vehicle as it weaved through traffic, often running red lights and stop signs.

The vehicle finally stopped on I-85 in Gaston County near the McAdenville exit.  The occupants of the vehicle, Reco Perry and Tahjah Quarles, ran from the scene and were later taken into custody in a wooded area.

Police say the men were involved in the shooting of the two people in west Charlotte.  Learn more about that shooting HERE.
