On November 28, 2008, 22-year-old Taji Mason was shot and killed in Charlotte, North Carolina. The killing came during a period marked by a spike in violent crime in the area, and the case remains one of several unresolved homicides from that time.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department’s cold case unit continues to investigate and has appealed to the public for information, offering rewards to encourage tips that might lead to an arrest. No one has been apprehended in connection with Mason’s death.
