  • Charlotte Tragedy, Statesville Data Center, and 49ers Football | Charlotte Local Pulse

    Charlotte Tragedy, Statesville Data Center, and 49ers Football | Charlotte Local Pulse
    2025/09/18
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Thursday, September 18. We wake up today to a somber story in Steele Creek. Early yesterday morning, a tragedy shook our city when a four-year-old boy was struck and killed by gunfire as he slept in his bed. The incident happened on Cigar Court, where police say suspects attempting to steal a black Dodge Charger fired shots directly into a residence, striking the child. The community is reeling, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police are urging anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers. Detectives are working around the clock, and the city mourns with this family.

    Turning to major stories out of city hall, our neighbors in Statesville just approved a huge new data center on Stamey Farm Road despite local opposition. While some residents worry about potential noise and environmental impact, city council gave the green light after assurances from Compass Datacenters. The project is bringing about two hundred new jobs in engineering and technical fields, and company officials are promising eco-friendly operations that preserve nearly half the land as open space.

    On the real estate front, the latest numbers out this week show that home prices in the Charlotte region are holding steady, with average sales hovering around four hundred sixteen thousand dollars. Inventory remains tight but new construction along the 485 corridor offers some relief for buyers. For renters, several new apartment buildings have opened near Ballantyne and South End.

    In the job market, Charlotte’s unemployment rate just ticked down to nearly four percent, reflecting ongoing growth in tech, healthcare, and logistics. The new data center project over in Statesville, just under an hour’s drive, is not only creating jobs but also offering training partnerships with local colleges, giving a boost to our regional workforce.

    Now for something a bit lighter—campus is buzzing today as ESPN’s SportsCenter sets up live at UNC Charlotte’s CHHS Plaza at two o'clock this afternoon, ahead of tonight’s football matchup. The Charlotte 49ers are set to take on the Rice Owls at Jerry Richardson Stadium, with kick-off at seven-thirty. Expect a lot of green and gold downtown today as fans get ready for the game, which will also be on national television.

    Weather-wise, we’ve got a cool morning and should see partly cloudy skies most of the day. Temperatures will climb to the upper seventies by afternoon, so it’s a perfect day to get outside, especially for those heading to the football game or any of the outdoor music events happening in NoDa and South End tonight.

    Charlotte’s music scene is thriving even in midweek, with local bands playing at the Evening Muse and Neighborhood Theatre. If you’re looking for community events, mark your calendars for this Saturday’s Dilworth Art Festival and the upcoming Queen City Jazz Society concert at Romare Bearden Park.

    Quick shout-out to the Myers Park High School girls’ soccer team, who clinched a big win Tuesday night and remain undefeated this season. And over at West Charlotte, the debate team just took home top honors at the regional invitational.

    Wrapping up, we have to share a bit of good news. A group of volunteers from the Historic West End just finished repainting the community playground on Oaklawn Avenue, adding bright new colors and cheerful murals. Small acts like these help us remember the pride and unity that make Charlotte such a warm and resilient city.

  • "Tragic Loss, New Initiatives, and Community Spirit: A Charlotte Local Pulse Update"

    "Tragic Loss, New Initiatives, and Community Spirit: A Charlotte Local Pulse Update"
    2025/09/14
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Sunday, September 14th, 2025. We start our day with some heavy hearts as Concord officials confirm a tragic loss for the community: a Cornelius police officer was killed in a bike crash yesterday afternoon. The accident happened along a busy stretch, and city leaders are already expressing condolences and offering support to the officer’s family. In response, our police department has increased patrols and will provide grief counseling for fellow officers.

    In city government news, there was movement at City Hall this week on a traffic safety initiative. Council members gave early approval to new speed cameras in school zones, aiming to cut down on accidents, especially as kids returned to class on Monday. Ardsley High and West Charlotte both reported record attendance for the start of this school year, and on the sports side, Myers Park’s football team remains undefeated after Friday’s 28-7 win over Independence.

    Turning to the weather, we are expecting a warm and mostly sunny day. Afternoon highs should reach the upper eighties with a slight breeze, perfect if you’re heading outdoors but stay hydrated. Organizers for the Dilworth Art Crawl say today’s weather is ideal, so look for lots of families and art lovers around East Boulevard by lunchtime.

    For those following the jobs scene, the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce reports that about 500 new postings went up last week, with health care and logistics continuing to drive hiring. On the real estate front, median home prices ticked up again and have now crossed 420 thousand dollars, according to local realtors, with South End and Plaza Midwood seeing the biggest jumps. That’s keeping first-time buyers on their toes but also bringing new energy to our neighborhoods.

    The energy extends to Uptown, where a new jazz spot called Blue Note on Tryon just opened its doors. They’re hosting live music every night this week and promising special appearances by local legends. Meanwhile, we say goodbye to the long-standing Dandelion Bakery in NoDa, which served its last croissant on Saturday.

    Looking ahead, keep an eye on the Charlotte International Festival kicking off Wednesday at Romare Bearden Park. Expect food, dance, and performances from over twenty different cultures, and kids under twelve get in free. For more family fun, Freedom Park will host a movie night Thursday evening with “Finding Nemo” on the big screen.

    Local police report a quiet but diligent weekend. Officers made several arrests downtown related to property theft, and CMPD reminds us to lock parked vehicles, especially in the busy South End area. No major violent incidents were reported in the last twenty-four hours.

    We end today with a community story that shows our city’s heart. Dozens of volunteers came together at McCrorey YMCA to assemble care packages for seniors and those in need, a small gesture making a big difference.

  • "Ukrainian Refugee's Tragic Death, Police Chief Payout Scandal, and Community Events in Charlotte"

    "Ukrainian Refugee's Tragic Death, Police Chief Payout Scandal, and Community Events in Charlotte"
    2025/09/13
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Saturday, September 13. We begin with updates on a story that has shaken our community. The fatal stabbing last month of 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska, a Ukrainian refugee, continues to spark intense debate and mourning. Last night, a vigil at Marshall Park drew crowds who honored Iryna’s life, painting a vivid picture of her journey from war-torn Ukraine to the Queen City, where she worked at a local pizzeria and dreamed of becoming a veterinary assistant. Her tragic death on the Lynx Blue Line has prompted new calls from city hall and state leaders to bolster police presence and improve public safety. State lawmakers are pressing for new law enforcement recruitment to fill vacancies and address career criminals on our streets. Iryna’s accused killer, Decarlos Brown Jr., has a long criminal history and a documented struggle with mental illness, raising tough questions about gaps in mental health services and judicial oversight. His next court date is set for September 19.

    We turn now to city hall, where fallout from the $305,000 taxpayer-funded settlement paid to retiring Police Chief Johnny Jennings is still making waves. Charlotte’s city council received sharp criticism this week after a state audit revealed they hid the payout details from the public. As budget season ramps up, this scrutiny over transparency is putting a spotlight on how our local officials spend public money.

    Let’s check the weather. After yesterday’s showers, we’re waking up to overcast skies and some lingering humidity. By midday, expect clouds to clear for a sunny afternoon, with highs near eighty-four degrees. If you’re heading out to the Uptown Farmers Market or planning your tailgate for tonight’s college football matchup near Bank of America Stadium, you’re in luck. No storms in sight for the rest of the weekend, just a cool breeze by evening.

    In business news, South End sees fresh activity: a new coffee shop on Camden Road just threw open its doors, promising locally roasted blends and indie vibes. Over in Plaza Midwood, a longtime bookstore is closing after two decades, reflecting the city’s shifting retail landscape. On the job front, Charlotte’s unemployment rate holds steady around four percent, with several hotels and tech firms posting openings this week. Entry-level hospitality jobs remain in demand, and skilled trades positions are rising, especially in construction downtown.

    For sports fans, high school football scores are in. Myers Park edged out Butler in a close 17-14 win last night, while West Charlotte celebrated its third straight victory. Uptown’s concert halls are buzzing, with indie rock artists performing tonight at Neighborhood Theatre and jazz taking over the Mint Museum’s patio on Sunday.

    As for community events, mark your calendars for the Festival of India tomorrow on Tryon Street, promising food stalls, music, and cultural showcases for all ages. Volunteers are still needed for next Saturday’s creek cleanup along Sugar Creek—an annual tradition that brings neighbors together for environmental action.

    Before we go, let’s share a feel-good story. Yesterday morning, students from Elizabeth Traditional Elementary surprised their crossing guard, Mr. Johnson, with handmade thank-you cards and balloons to honor his twenty-five years of service, bringing smiles and a few happy tears at the intersection of 4th and Hawthorne.
