The reasons behind a fight at Northampton County High School last week are still not clear, the Northampton County Sheriff’s Office said today.
A Wallace truck driver was cited for a safe movement violation in a Monday crash which caused 2,500 gallons of hog waste to spill onto the roadway in Northampton County.
A $5,000 reward has been established through the governor’s office in the fatal Christmas Eve beating last year of an 85-year-old man in Severn.
A tractor-trailer carrying hog waste overturned this afternoon, leaking approximately 2,500 gallons.
As the Northampton County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate a series of fights Monday at the county high school in Gaston, Sheriff Jack Smith confirmed this afternoon approximately 40 students were involved.
An attempted larceny call in Roanoke Rapids led to a chase which ended with the alleged suspect colliding with a tractor-trailer in Seaboard this evening.
A curfew is in effect in Northampton County until Sunday morning at 9.
The Northampton County Sheriff’s Office reported the following, according to Captain Patrick Jacobs:
A Gaston man was arrested Sunday morning after reportedly breaking into the town’s ABC Store and stealing two bottles of gin.
Halifax Regional Medical Center staff and a medical examiner observed burn marks, abrasions and bruising on a 4-year-old Seaboard boy whose mother is currently charged with intentional felony child abuse causing serious bodily injury.
