Police to correct shooting warrants

Charleston police say an arrest warrant in this week's fatal shooting in the Citadel Mall parking lot was incorrect. A man identified as a robber in court documents was merely a witness, police said. The shooting outside the J.C. Penney store about 1:30 p.m. Wednesday left Begondae Moore, 27, dead. Two men have been arrested on charges of murder and possessing a weapon during the commission of a violent crime.
