Orlando Neal has worked as a non-certified substitute teacher for Gaston County Schools since 2007.   He’s charged with the murder of 77-year-old Charles Neal.  

Residents flagged down an officer Thursday and told him a man was being assaulted on Dawnalia Drive.  That officer says he found the suspect pouring gas on the victim, and stopped him.
