The family of Qualo Daniels, who was fatally shot outside the Charlotte Transportation Center, has filed a lawsuit against the city of Charlotte.

The family of a man killed in April at the Charlotte Transportation Center in uptown is suing the city of Charlotte and its private transit security contractor. Qualo Daniels was a bystander when he was shot during a fight between two other men at the transit center.

In the lawsuit, his family says the city didn’t provide proper security despite the transit center being a crime hotspot where previous killings had occurred. The city told media outlets it doesn’t comment on pending litigation.
