Charlotte Man Arrested for Recording Assaults

Di-Quan Schafar Hunt, 32, has been arrested in Charlotte following the emergence of a disturbing video that appears to show him recording himself assaulting a woman. The footage captured Hunt yelling at and then punching a woman on the street, who was later hospitalized with serious injuries. Police are investigating Hunt in connection with several other alleged assaults on women that he reportedly recorded. Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office records indicate Hunt has a history of nine arrests over the past three years, facing charges such as trespassing, simple assault, assault on a female, and resisting an officer. He was previously convicted in 2020 for shooting into an occupied building and was arrested in December for allegedly threatening a man with a knife. His recent arrest on Thursday led to him being taken to a medical facility, with charges of assault with a deadly weapon pending his release. Police acknowledged concerns about repeat offenders, noting that Hunt's case echoes that of another individual with multiple prior arrests who was recently implicated in a stabbing incident. Authorities are actively seeking further information from the public regarding any potential additional victims of Hunt's alleged crimes.
