CHARLOTTE (AP) -- A student at a Charlotte charter school has been shot in the shoulder, but is expected to survive. Charlotte-Mecklenburg police said officers arrested a suspect not long after Wednesday's shooting, which took place in the parking lot of Crossroads Charter High School around 10 a.m. The school's principal tells WSOC-TV the shooting happened as students were being dismissed for the day due to testing.
