CHARLOTTE, N.C. — I guess the joke is on us? Even WCCB’s very own producer fell for an April Fools’ prank played on us today in Charlotte.

Big Announcement at HFD! This new helmet will allow us to access fire quicker & will also improve our annual cardiac stress test scores that we take on stationary bikes. Despite a 200% cost increase, this is a win for us. #BlackOverRed #PlasticNeverMelts #NewLid #Sleek pic.twitter.com/YPKbVnfqTZ

- CMPD Animal Care & Control gets new name.
Animal Care & Control is now Animal Lost & Found Center! Our officers are now Lost Prevention Agents. Why? Because the animals coming through our doors are owned by *someone*. We ARE the first to place to check for all lost/found pets in Mecklenburg County. #AnimalLostFoundCenter pic.twitter.com/TkoRsiqKGW
