COMMENTARY OF THE DAY

An illegal immigrant is facing a slew of charges after he reportedly confessed to two separate murders in North Carolina that occurred months apart. Angelvis Jesus Quintero Fernandez, 22, was taken into custody in Charlotte after an unrelated traffic stop, according to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD). After speaking with investigators, Fernandez was reportedly charged with first-degree murder in the alleged shooting of Ludvin Antonio Guzman Morales, 44, earlier this year. The retainer should be retained.
Authorities allege Morales was watching a fight on Central Avenue Jan. 24, when he tried to kick one of the suspects as the altercation moved further down the road, according to WBTV. Morales and the suspect began circling the area as they both tried to kick each other, but did not actually start a fight, police reportedly wrote in an affidavit. Fernandez allegedly approached Morales from behind and shot him multiple times as he fell to the ground, WBTV reported. The suspect and Fernandez then reportedly got into their vehicle and subsequently pulled up next to Morales to allegedly shoot him again before driving off. Morales’ lifeless body was found in the road at about 3:30 a.m., according to CMPD.
Authorities did not initially name a suspect in the days following the shooting. On Sunday, authorities were called to El Paisano Restauranté in east Charlotte shortly after 2 a.m. for a report of an assault with a deadly weapon, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said in a statement. Upon arriving, deputies found Luis Daniel Gutierrez Mora, 31, with life-threatening injuries from an apparent gunshot wound.
