The CMPD chief said tips from the public helped lead investigators to Sterling. He said detectives worked nonstop Friday and Saturday, and they received "several important pieces of information" late Saturday or early Sunday. Monroe indicated some of the information came from Sterling's relatives.
"I believe people will do the right thing, no matter how close they are to a situation," he said.
"I cannot emphasize how important the information from the public was in bringing closure to this case," Monroe added.
Anyway, a great Thank You to the CMPD and Rock Hill police!
Back home whenever I took a walk I would always carry a second wallet with me so if I ever get robbed I would just give them the wallet that was filled with little pieces of paper. I never got robbed though so I was lucky. Maybe some of us should start doing the second wallet thing here in Charlotte?
I really like this idea for those who carry wallets!
Glad he is in custody, but maybe the people who 'liked' his status posts (example below) should be investigated before they hurt someone.
The following was written just 5 days before he shot a man walking down a quiet residential street at ~10am.

I grew up on Sharonview just around the corner, and this whole situation makes me angry & sad at the same time.
So pointless.
"He had relatives who live in the area near where the robbery took place"
And people wonder by some folks don't want low income housing near their families.

Exactly so when they point a gun at you and demand your money all you have to do is pull out the fake wallet and say "You want my money? here go fetch" and thats when you run
I knew too many people back home who were victims of random robberies. This stuff happens more than people think.
Wonder why you assume his relatives are low income?
Because there is some "scattered site housing" in the direction he was seen running. I could of course be wrong, but the punk little coward is pretty much living up to all stereotypes so far.
I'd like to see his arrest history, I'm betting this is not the first. I fail to understand why the greater society has to tolerate these savages running around loose.
If they are under age I think the parents should be held responsible for their actions. I also think we should follow some of other countries and bring back corporal punishment for the minor offenses...
