CHARLOTTE -- The woman who was killed by the father of her child in Charlotte Thursday has been identified as Brittany White, 24.

CMPD says White was killed in what seems to have been a domestic situation.

The suspect, Jonathan Bennett, is still at large and detectives are continuing to ask for the public’s assistance in locating him. Authorities say Bennett should be considered armed and dangerous.  

He is thought to be driving a white ord Expedition with New York license plates. 

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police department managed to locate the couple's toddler safely Thursday afternoon, after he was taken by Bennett. 

If spotted, residents are asked to call 911. 

This incident was the first homicide in Charlotte in 2018.
