An elderly woman has passed away in a triple-vehicle accident that occurred on Friday night in Granville County, North Carolina. The incident took place at around 9 p.m. near Munns Road on U.S. 15, which is approximately four miles south of Creedmoor.

The North Carolina State Highway Patrol was called to the scene and reported that two vehicles attempted to pass each other resulting in one of the male drivers overturning his vehicle and hitting another car. Unfortunately, this collision resulted in the death of an elderly woman who was not speeding at the time of the crash but had a seven-year-old child with her who survived.

One vehicle was off the road in a ditch, while another had flipped over. Emergency services including law enforcement officers and firefighters were working together to manage the situation along with several civilians present there as well.

NCSHP confirmed that two children and a male driver were injured during this accident and have been taken to hospital for treatment. Speeding is believed to be a significant factor contributing towards this tragic event; however, investigations are ongoing regarding whether drugs or alcohol played any role in causing it.
