The Highway Patrol has released the name of a teenager killed in a single car accident Monday morning. The collision happened on US301 just south of the Four Oaks city limits.
Nineteen year-old Johnny Shaquan Campbell of Four Oaks was traveling southbound and attempted to pass a line of vehicles. Campbell, who was traveling between 60 and 65mph according to Trooper G.H.

Trooper Fryar said he was unable to determine if Campbell was wearing a seat belt. There were no passengers in the vehicle.
It was raining at the time of the accident and the roadway was wet.
