GARNER – Garner Police are investigating a fatal crash at the intersection of US 70 and New Rand Road. The three vehicle accident was reported at 1:22pm Monday. Police said it involved a silver Chevrolet Trailblazer, a dark blue Mazda CX5 Select, and a black Cadillac Escalade.
The driver of the Mazda, Tyler Campbell, age 28, and a passenger, Susan Campbell, age 29, were killed. A third person in the Mazda, a child, was transported to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the Chevy Trailblazer, Jordan Alexander Porter, age 25, was transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Police said Porter was traveling westbound on US 70 and ran a red light, striking the Mazda, traveling south on New Rand Rd.
Jordan Porter has been charged with driving while impaired. More charges are anticipated as the investigation continues.
A third vehicle, a Cadillac Escalade, had minor damage, and the occupants were not injured.
Tyler Campbell, and, Susan Campbell, may you rest in peace and prayers for their families. May PORTER ROT IN HELL! His DWI killed two innocent young people for because Porter ran a red light. This is not acceptable!
Make that three.
Unfortunately, it is now three.
Such an unnecessary sad loss of life. This little boy will never get to really know his parents due to Porters selfish act. Porter has ruined his own life and I hope they lock him up for good. I pray this little boy recovers fully and has family to raise him while shining the light of his parents.
RIP
If Porter never trie his first alcohol, chances are, he would have been able to stop. Yet people support to support this Industry.
Countless lives have been taken because of alcohol when is the government gonna do something about it? They won’t because they have their hands in it!
Countless lives have been taken because “people have chosen” to drink alcohol. The government is not the answer and not the problem solver. The government (federal and/or state) has actually legalized some drugs thinking it will make things better when in actuality it makes it worse. Sure you won’t be arresting people for drug use/possession but the side effects of use are of great harm. People need to be accountable for what they do, not the government. Lack of personal accountability is the real danger.
Porter had 12 prior violations ,9 were dismissed including a hit& run that victim no-showed at court. This guy needs a long prison sentence! May the Lord bring a miracle for their little boy that is fighting for his life!
Why no picture of the drunk driver? Usually they show picture
I was wonder that too!!!!!!
We all know why ……
Why? Honestly curious.
I know why, they don’t want to give the guy attention. He is married guy with kids too.
We all know why.
Why?
This is sad, a whole young family demised due to a senseless person!!!!! RIP Campbell family!
Thomas,,,, Agree 100%
Maybe because he was in the hospital. There’s different variables to situations.
Claimed 3 lives. Child was declared brain dead.
Those who covered up for his past should be held criminally liable, too. It is very shady.
