Deputies arrest ‘armed and dangerous’ shooting suspect in Rowan County

SALISBURY, N.C. — The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office arrested a suspect over the weekend they said was armed and dangerous.

Channel 9 reported last week that deputies were looking for Joseph Parham Jr.

Investigators said he fired shots into a stolen car with someone inside last month outside a home in Salisbury.

On Sunday, deputies said they arrested Parham at another home.

He’s charged with discharging a firearm into occupied property and possession of a firearm by a felon.

An investigation in February revealed that Parham and another person got into a disagreement that led them to a home on Sides Road.

While in the driveway of the home, deputies said Parham discharged a weapon into the other person’s vehicle.

No one was injured in the incident.
