A man was arrested in North Carolina after allegedly firing a gun at a local comedy club, police said.
The suspected shooter arrived at The Comedy Zone in Charlotte around 9:00 p.m. Saturday night, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said.
“He brandished a firearm inside the business, which was quickly evacuated,” the department said. “The suspect then discharged his weapon. There were no injuries and the suspect was taken into custody.”
Comedian and actor Craig Robinson, who was due to perform at the club on Saturday, said on Instagram that he was in the green room when he was told to evacuate the building.
“I’m performing at The Comedy Zone in Charlotte, North Carolina — there was an active shooter at the comedy club,” he said.
