SWAT officers appeared to be raiding a number of gambling establishments in the Charlotte area on Wednesday.
Officers swarmed one location on Albemarle Road near Independence Boulevard around 1 p.m. with undercover and CMPD units. Two other locations, along Independence Boulevard in Matthews, and on Bessemer City Road in Gastonia, were all locations of a heavy police presence Wednesday.
It's unclear how many agencies are part of the operation that spans multiple jurisdictions. WCNC Charlotte has contacted Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police, as well as North Carolina Alcohol Law Enforcement (ALE) to learn more about the operation.
"A lot of rigmarole goes on over there," Michelle Touchberry, who was in the area when police arrived, said. "You smell weed, they don't keep the place clean. They walk through the parking lot and they just throw trash. You find needles all over here and stuff like that. It's just bad news."

It’s a trend schools across the country are seeing -- chronic absenteeism.
According to the New York Times, chronic absenteeism is typically defined as missing at least 10% of the school year -- or about 18 days. In a new report from the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative-leaning think tank, 26% of public school students were chronically absent last year. That’s compared to 15% in 2019.
So what’s behind the big jump? Well, the years of the data used is our first clue.

Across much of the United States on Monday, a solar eclipse will cause a spectacle and spark scientific insight.
A four-minute period of complete darkness will occur along the path of totality from Texas to Ohio and into New England. An estimated 31.6 million people live in the path of totality this year, according to NASA. That compares to 12 million people in 2017, when the path of totality came directly through the Carolinas.
In 2024, places like Charlotte, North Carolina, which saw near-totality in 2017, will only reach a peak of 80% totality around 3:11 p.m. Monday. Let's take a closer look at what you need to know.

The severe threat has moved to the east of the Charlotte area, after strong storms moved through Georgia into the Carolinas this morning.
A strong storm system moving through the region produced a grand total of 14 tornado reports, 160 wind reports and 25 large hail reports over the last 24 hours, with these numbers likely to grow -- but none were in our area.
This severe weather window has closed for the Charlotte area but a cold front will push in later today.
Here's how that could impact you: https://www.wcnc.com/article/weather/severe-weather/strong-storms-wednesday-carolina/275-9d99d88b-b82a-4024-9ef7-4b7be7c8e4d3
