A Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department supervisor was arrested for alleged financial crimes, the department announced on Wednesday.
Lieutenant Warith Muhammad was charged with financial transaction card fraud and conspiracy to commit financial transaction card fraud, CMPD said. Both charges are felonies.
Muhammad is the second CMPD officer facing financial charges. Officer Henry Chapman is accused of stealing $900 from a man during an arrest and hiding it in his patrol car. An affidavit states Chapman pulled a man over for speeding and was attempting to serve an outstanding federal arrest warrant.
Chapman allegedly denied knowing the money was there, but the affidavit says it was captured on body camera video. Chapman later admitted to taking the money, but not intending to steal it. He was charged with one count of embezzlement.
