  • Breaking News, Tech Boom, and Senior Antics: Saturday's Charlotte Local Pulse
    2025/03/08
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Saturday, March 8, 2025.

    We're starting with some breaking news from last night. Two CMPD officers were injured and a suspect was killed in a shootout while serving a warrant in northeast Charlotte. The incident occurred in the 12000 block of Headquarters Farm Road. Both officers are expected to recover, and an investigation is ongoing.

    In weather news, we're seeing a beautiful start to the weekend with clear skies and temperatures in the mid-60s. It's perfect weather for the YMCA Corporate Cup 5K and Half Marathon happening today. Runners, remember there will be some road closures and bus detours in effect, so plan your routes accordingly.

    Speaking of events, don't forget that the 11th annual Charlotte Mayor's Masked Ball is happening tonight at the Charlotte Convention Center. This UNCF fundraiser is expected to draw nearly 1,500 attendees and will feature a performance by R&B icon Charlie Wilson.

    In business news, the tech job market in Charlotte is off to a strong start in 2025. We're seeing growth in areas like data science, fintech, and cybersecurity. The average salary for back-end developers has reached $114,000, with some senior positions commanding up to $152,000. If you're in tech or looking to break in, now might be a great time to explore opportunities in the Queen City.

    On the education front, congratulations to Tori Jarrett, a Charlotte native and sophomore at Spelman College, who was named a UNCF Gantt-McColl Scholar. It's always great to see our local students excelling.

    In sports, Charlotte FC fans are gearing up for today's game. Remember, there will be some traffic and transit adjustments around the stadium, so arrive early if you're heading to the match.

    We've got some exciting news for book lovers. A new romance bookstore has just opened its doors in Plaza Midwood, adding to our city's vibrant independent business scene.

    Now for our daily crime report. CMPD is investigating a serious incident from last weekend where a pedestrian was struck by a light rail train near the intersection of Remount Road and South Boulevard in South End. The victim was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries. As always, please exercise caution around rail crossings.

    On a lighter note, we're hearing reports of high school seniors engaging in a city-wide game of "senior assassin" using water guns. While it's all in good fun, residents might spot some stealthy teens in bushes around town. No need for alarm – it's just part of the spring tradition.

    This has been Charlotte Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • "Deadly Accident, Power Outages, and Weekend Events: Your Charlotte Local Pulse"
    2025/03/07
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Friday, March 7, 2025.

    We're starting off with some breaking news from overnight. A fatal industrial accident occurred at a facility on Westinghouse Boulevard in south Charlotte. One person has been confirmed dead, and emergency crews are still on the scene. We'll bring you more details as they become available.

    In other news, the city is still recovering from yesterday's severe weather. While the sun is out now, many residents are dealing with downed trees and power outages. Duke Energy reports they've restored power to most customers, but about 5,000 homes in Mecklenburg County are still without electricity this morning.

    Speaking of weather, we're looking at a beautiful day ahead with highs near 70 and plenty of sunshine. Perfect conditions for the many events happening around town this weekend.

    One of those events is the First Friday celebration in Rock Hill tonight. You can enjoy live music, local art, and some retail therapy at shops staying open late. Several restaurants will have food and drink specials too.

    In sports news, the Charlotte 49ers women's basketball team scored a big win last night. Led by Alexis Andrews' season-high 27 points, they defeated Wichita State 73-59 at Halton Arena. The team is building momentum as they head into their final regular-season game this weekend.

    On the business front, we've got word of a new tech company setting up shop in Uptown. The firm, which specializes in artificial intelligence, plans to bring about 200 jobs to the area over the next two years. They'll be moving into office space on South Tryon Street this summer.

    In real estate, the latest figures show Charlotte's housing market remains competitive. The median home price in the metro area now stands at $385,000, up 5% from this time last year. Realtors say inventory is still tight, with most homes receiving multiple offers.

    Looking ahead to the weekend, don't forget about the St. Patrick's Day parade tomorrow in Uptown. The festivities kick off at 11 AM on Tryon Street. And on Sunday, the Charlotte Symphony is performing a free concert at First Ward Park starting at 3 PM.

    In education news, congratulations to the students at West Charlotte High School. Their robotics team just qualified for the state championships next month. And over at UNC Charlotte, researchers have received a major grant to study sustainable urban development.

    Lastly, we want to highlight a heartwarming story from our community. A group of volunteers from several local churches came together yesterday to build a wheelchair ramp for a veteran in need. The project, organized by the nonprofit Servants With a Heart, was completed in just one day.

    This has been Charlotte Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • Charlotte Tech Boom, Tragic Crash, and 49ers Women's Basketball Win
    2025/03/06
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for March 6, 2025.

    We're starting with some breaking news from last night. A fatal hit-and-run incident occurred in the Freedom Division, involving a vehicle and a pedestrian. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department's Major Crash Investigation Unit is currently investigating the case. Our thoughts are with the victim's family during this difficult time.

    In city developments, Charlotte's tech scene continues to boom. The industry has seen a 50% increase in job postings over the past year, with nearly 30,000 tech professionals now calling our city home. Major companies like Bank of America and Honeywell are expanding their tech operations, while the startup scene is thriving in fintech, AI, and data science. The average salary for back-end developers has reached $114,000, with some senior positions commanding up to $152,000.

    On the real estate front, the tech boom is impacting housing prices. We're seeing steady increases, especially in areas close to major tech hubs. If you're in the market, now might be a good time to consider your options.

    In sports news, the Charlotte 49ers women's basketball team secured a win against Wichita State last night. Alexis Andrews led the charge with a season-high 27 points, propelling the team to a 73-59 victory at Halton Arena. Coach Tomekia Reed praised the team's preparation and Andrews' performance.

    Looking at today's weather, we're expecting scattered showers throughout the day with temperatures hovering around 65°F. Don't forget your umbrella if you're heading out.

    In community news, Charlotte Christian School's athletics department has a busy month ahead. Their calendar is packed with events across various sports, from tennis and baseball to lacrosse and golf. If you're a sports enthusiast, there's plenty to look forward to.

    On the cultural front, TECHSPO Charlotte 2025 is just around the corner. This event will bring together the brightest minds in tech, showcasing innovations from AdTech to MarTech. It's a great opportunity for networking and learning about the latest industry trends.

    In today's crime report, the CMPD has made progress on a cold case. Details are still emerging, but it's a testament to our law enforcement's dedication. Additionally, a potential threat of school shootings was thwarted, thanks to the vigilance of our community and quick action by authorities.

    On a lighter note, a heartwarming reunion took place at the historic Woolworth site. Former sit-in participants gathered to share their experiences and celebrate the progress made in civil rights.
