CMPD and CMS police are currently looking for a suspect in a robbery that happened near Hidden Valley Elementary School this morning. Police say a parent of a student was robbed just after 10 a.m. The school has been put on lockdown while police circle the area with cruisers, K-9 units and their "Snoopy" helicopter. (WSOC Staff) 

South Tryon Street was closed this morning after a car ran into a utility pole. The driver was not injured. The road was closed between Camden Road and Park Avenue, but was expected to open again at noon. (Fox46 Staff) 

The other side of Tryon was also closed down for a time this morning but has already re-opened after a semi-truck became stuck under a train bridge on North Tryon Street. The incident happened just after 6 a.m. near 16th Street and was cleared before 9 a.m. (WBTV Web Staff) 

The Charlotte Hornets won their third straight playoff game last night, taking a 3-2 series lead over the Miami Heat in the first round. Courtney Lee's three-pointer with 25 seconds left ended up being the game-winner. The Hornets have a chance of winning the series tomorrow night in Charlotte and moving on to play the winner of the Boston and Indiana series.
