  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for December 1, 2024. We're starting off the week with a mix of news, updates, and community stories that shape our city.

    First off, a major development in a long-standing case: the search in Cleveland County has brought the Asha Degree case back into the spotlight. This cold case has been a mystery for years, and any new leads are crucial for the family and investigators[1].

    In other news, a shooting in Steele Creek late Friday night has left one person seriously hurt. MEDIC reported the incident, and we're waiting for more details on the investigation[5].

    Moving on to our job market snapshot, there haven't been any major hiring announcements in the past few days, but we're keeping an eye on the local job postings and business expansions. The current unemployment rate remains steady, but we'll update you if there are any changes.

    In real estate, there are new details on properties from the massive Cleveland County search, which might be linked to the Asha Degree case. Additionally, the new CLT concourse at Charlotte Douglas International Airport has opened with new eateries and special glass features, enhancing the travel experience for locals and visitors[1].

    From city hall, an amendment to the controversial 'Raise the Age' law goes into effect today, December 1. This change addresses which court handles charges for 16- and 17-year-olds accused of serious crimes, aiming to improve the juvenile justice system[3].

    Weather-wise, remnants of Francine are expected to bring rain back to our area. Today's activities might be affected, so check the forecast before heading out. We're looking at a wet start to the week, but we'll keep you updated on any changes.

    In new business activity, the community is rallying around a local cow to help it get a bovine friend, showcasing the heart of our community. On a different note, the Matthews Police chief has resigned after less than a year, leading to changes in local law enforcement leadership[1].

    Upcoming community events include various holiday activities across the city. We'll highlight these events in more detail as we get closer to the dates.

    In local school achievements, a Charlotte college football player was tragically killed in West Virginia, and our thoughts are with the family and the community. On a brighter note, local schools are gearing up for holiday events and fundraisers.

    For our feel-good story, a small town in Germany has turned its town hall into the "world's largest" advent calendar, inspiring us with creative ways to celebrate the holiday season[4].

    In today's crime report, a homicide investigation is underway in east Charlotte, and 101 drivers were stopped in a 35 mph zone, with some going over 70 mph. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department is emphasizing road safety and urging drivers to adhere to speed limits[1].

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