CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - Anthony Caldwell was pulled over by a car full of officers with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department while driving after dark in the area of Tryon Street and Billy Graham Parkway in December 2019.
When the CMPD car pulled behind him and turned on its lights, Caldwell slowed down and drove to a hotel parking lot nearby, where he stopped his car and cracked his window to talk with the officers.
