A devastating fire in north Charlotte claimed the lives of seven dogs and left two individuals homeless on Wednesday night. The Charlotte Fire Department responded to the blaze on Clooney Lane, close to University City Boulevard, at approximately 9:30 p.m.
Upon arrival, firefighters encountered intense flames engulfing the two-story residence. Despite their efforts, it took 30 minutes to gain control over the fire, says WBTV.
Tragically, all the pets inside the home perished in the blaze, but fortunately, no human casualties were reported.
