A bit of a scare at a Henrico apartment complex — firefighters quickly knocked back flames at the Bremner Woods Apartments off Beth Road.

Damage was contained to an unoccupied apartment, being renovated at the time.

No one was hurt and there's no word yet on a cause.

HENRICO, VA (WWBT)- Water has been running like a stream since December through 87-year-old Bill Rouse's backyard. He says he doesn't know why, and he can't get any answers from the county. So Bill's family called 12 to straighten it out. 

Bill Rouse is a World War II veteran, and accustomed to handling his own problems. But this one wasn't getting the right attention from Henrico, he says. If you need combat boots to keep your feet dry while walking through your backyard, you've got a problem. 

Bill is looking for a simple answer from Henrico County: why is his backyard soggy, soaked, covered in water? 

"It's terrible. You can't get to your backyard. Can't get to your tool shed to even get a shovel out. Up to your ankles in mud and water," he said. 

HENRICO, VA (WWBT)- A Short Pump man undergoes major reconstructive surgery after being shot in the face two years ago. The crime happened in 2010. No one has been arrested.  

This surgery is significant because it's to rebuild 56-year-old Terrance Nero's upper jaw. It's an 18 hour procedure. NBC12 met with Nero before he went to the hospital.

Nero is a changed man since the shooting -- physically and emotionally.

"I haven't been able to chew food in 2 years. I don't have the life I had. Somebody took that away from me with malicious intent," said Nero.

He calls himself, a survivor.

"The person that did this to me certainly intended for me to not be here today," he added.

On March 11, 2010, Nero was in his home in the 4900 block of Park Meadows Lane in Henrico's west end. Somebody, who apparently hid in a bush, fired a shot into Nero's home.
