A 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee, who had just fled the horrors of war in search of a safer and more promising life in the United States, was stabbed to death in a North Carolina train station last week. According to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, Iryna Zarutska was found dead at the East/West Boulevard light rail station in South End, Charlotte, at around 10:30 pm. Zarutska suffered multiple injuries and was declared dead at the scene, The New York Post reported. The suspect, Decarlos Brown Jr, 34, a homeless man with a long criminal past, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Brown will be officially detained upon his discharge from Atrium Health after being transported there with non-life-threatening injuries. According to court records, Brown has had run-ins with the law since at least 2011, including convictions for conveying threats, robbery with a deadly weapon, and felony larceny. While other previous charges were dropped, he was sentenced to about five years in jail for the robbery charge.
