Crews responded to a house fire in southwest Charlotte early Wednesday morning. The Charlotte Fire Department said it happened on Slanton Road, near Nations Ford Road, just before 4 a.m. Video of the fire Wednesday morning shows smoke flowing out of the home, a charred roof, and several fire engines on scene. One neighbor who spoke with Channel 9 recalled the moments he saw the large response. โI was just up on the corner waiting to get some gas and one after another, fire truck, fire truck, ambulance, firetruck โ and I started getting nosey because I know two families in this area,โ Taylor Maddox said. Charlotte Fire said the blaze was under control in 20 minutes and no one was hurt.
