Investigators return to home of missing 11-year-old girl: Thursday, Dec. 22
Investigators returned to the home of missing 11-year-old Madalina Cojocari Wednesday afternoon, with officers seen taking items from the home and placing them in a crime scene van. Detectives at the scene didn't share any details on what they found. Ben Thompson has the latest on the case, including new details we learned from Diana Cojocari's interview with detectives following her arrest, including her contacting family in Moldova before she reported her daughter as missing. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department honored the life of fallen officer Mia Goodwin early Thursday with a procession from Uptown Charlotte to the location on Interstate 85 where she was killed. Goodwin died when she was hit by a truck driver on I-85 last December. Tradesha Woodard joins Wake Up Charlotte To Go from north Charlotte, where Chief Johnny Jennings explained why the procession and memorial was necessary to show support for Goodwin's family one year after her death in the line of duty. And finally, new research shows wildfires in the North Carolina mountains were actually beneficial to the state. Ben Thompson connects the dots on how nature is healing after the wildfires of 2016, including more diversity among birds statewide. Watch Wake Up Charlotte each weekday morning from 4:30 to 7 a.m. on WCNC Charlotte, and as always, join the conversation on social media using #WakeUpCLT!
