Bryce Young makes surprise appearance at Charlotte schools, football practices
Carolina Panthers Quarterback Bryce Young dropped in on a few schools in the Charlotte area Monday, sharing his advice on inspiration and a few sweet treats. Young went to West Charlotte High School and brought Bojangles' Bo-Berry Cookies for the state-championship football team and the girls' flag football teams. Advertisement Bryce offered his congratulations to the players, but he also knows how important his influence can be in the Carolinas. 'I was able to have a lot of people, whether it was up close or from afar, that I could look at and try to learn from and be inspired by,' Young said. 'You know, [I'm] blessed to be able to have that opportunity now, and I don't that lightly.' Young also stopped at Ranson Middle School to surprise students who achieved academic milestones. He brought more cookies, answered questions, and took pictures with the kids. Young is set to start his third season with the Panthers after a strong draft. We'll learn the Panthers' opening day schedule for 2025 later this month. (VIDEO >> 'Experience everything': Bryce Young on bouncing back from the bench, and playing for the fans)

CMPD responds to food truck incident at Lovin' Life Music Fest in Charlotte
In the final hours of this year's Lovin' Life Music Fest, there was an incident at one of the music festival's food trucks. Shortly before 8 p.m. on Sunday, several Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police officers and the Charlotte Fire Department were seen responding at the Bojangles' food truck near the Miller Lite Stage during Teddy Swims' performance. According to fans at the festival, the truck appeared to be on fire, with flames seen blowing from inside. At this time, it's unclear what exactly happened or if anyone was injured.
