Charlotte is once again dealing with violent crime on its public transit system after another light rail stabbing left a passenger critically injured. Police have identified the suspect as Oscar Solarzano, a previously deported illegal immigrant who now faces multiple serious charges.
According to police reports and court filings, Solarzano allegedly forced his way into a light rail car while carrying a large fixed blade knife. Witnesses say he appeared intoxicated, shouted incoherently, confronted passenger Kenyon Kareem Shemar Dobie, and then stabbed him in the chest. Dobie was rushed to the hospital and survived in critical but stable condition.
Prosecutors detailed a long list of charges including attempted first degree murder, assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury, breaking and entering into a motor vehicle, carrying a concealed weapon, and public intoxication. Because immigration authorities classify him as a previously deported illegal immigrant, he is being held without bond.
This attack follows the widely reported murder of 23 year old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a Charlotte commuter train earlier this year. That case sparked national outrage and raised questions about safety on the city’s rail system. Friday’s stabbing only intensifies those concerns as Charlotte residents ask why these violent incidents continue unchecked.
The political fallout has been immediate. Former President Donald Trump responded sharply, saying Charlotte is being destroyed by Democrat leadership and calling the latest stabbing further proof of failed immigration enforcement. Local leaders also face renewed pressure to improve transit security and address repeat crime committed by individuals who should not be in the country to begin with.
Charlotte is now confronting the same pattern seen in many Democrat run cities where public transit crime rises while leaders refuse to acknowledge the role of illegal immigration in repeat violent offenses. Residents deserve answers and accountability before another preventable tragedy occurs.
