Driver Abandons Wrecked Car

KENLY – A driver abandoned their car Monday night after losing control and apparently overturning several times on NC 222 west of Kenly near Beulahtown Road.

Micro and Kenly firefighters along with a Johnston County sheriff’s deputy and NC state trooper searched the nearby woods and roadways for the driver, without success.

Debris was scattered as the car rolled over and ended up in a deep ditch. The driver apparently fled the scene before emergency responders arrived.

The Highway Patrol investigated the accident which was reported at about 8:30pm.
