On Wednesday, November 16, 2022, Iredell County Sheriff’s Office Road Patrol Deputies responded to an alarm at Carolina KTM.

Detective K. Sherard was assigned all three cases. During the investigation, Detective Sherard obtained camera footage from surrounding businesses that showed a suspect vehicle and a box truck on two different occasions. A positive vehicle identification was made of the suspect vehicle, with the owner being Terrell Joseph Williams from Charlotte, North Carolina.
Through multiple search warrants, it was discovered that Williams was at Carolina KTM during the time of the breaking and entering. This information was verified through the camera footage that was obtained by Detective Sherard.
Based upon all the evidence gathered throughout this investigation, Detective Sherard obtained felony arrest warrants for Terrell Joseph Williams, charging him with Two Counts of Felony Breaking and Entering, Felony Breaking and Entering a Trailer, Twelve counts of Felony Larceny of a Motor Vehicle, and Seven Counts of Felony Larceny.
