In another unfortunate event, Winston-Salem police have confirmed that a crash last night on South Stratford Road has claimed the life of one person, while another individual sustained serious injuries.

Meanwhile, parts of North Carolina are still grappling with the aftermath of severe weather that struck earlier this week. The Alamance Burlington School district, already struggling with previous issues including mold cleanup and remediation efforts, is now facing further damage due to leaky ceilings, brown spots on ceiling tiles, and even buckling in some cases. Graham High School is among the seven schools in the district severely affected. The school system, which has already spent millions on addressing mold-related problems, is now concerned about the impact of the recent damage on students’ education and funding. School officials are appealing for additional financial support to address these pressing issues.

In other news, the body of a High Point man involved in a crash on Interstate 74 has been found, days after he lost control of his vehicle and crashed into a guardrail. Authorities responded to a hit-and-run crash on Wendover Avenue and Penny Road, and later determined that the suspect’s vehicle was involved in a subsequent crash on I-74W and Johnson Street. The suspect, identified as Eric Morrison Jr., was not found at the scene, and a missing person report was filed by his family two days later. His body was eventually discovered at the bottom of a steep embankment near the crash site, with a significant head injury. Preliminary investigations suggest that Morrison lost control on the exit ramp, hitting the guardrail and being ejected from the vehicle, resulting in his tragic death.

Our thoughts go out to the families and loved ones affected by these devastating incidents. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to bring you the latest news.
