CHARLOTTE — Firefighters worked to put out a fire early Tuesday morning inside a house in east Charlotte.
A Channel 9 crew could still see firefighters at a home past midnight on Olde Savannah Road, which is just off Albemarle Road.
Our crews could not see any damage from the outside, but did see a screen pushed out of an upstairs window.
