Carmel Rd. fire -- it was practice
A south Charlotte house caught fire this morning, but it wasn't anything the Charlotte Fire Department couldn't handle.In fact, a group of firefighters set the house on fire. It's part of a training drill for a group of 18 recruits for the Charlotte Fire Department.They conducted a burning drill today at a vacant single-story house in the 3600 block of Carmel Road, near Quail Hollow Road. Charlotte fire Capt. Rob Brisley said today's drill is a way of helping the recruits test the skills they learned in the classroom and at the fire academy. He said no major traffic problems are expected, because a hydrant is located near the house.The recruits are scheduled to graduate Thursday night and begin work Friday at their respective stations.
