A North Carolina father shot and killed a state Department of Corrections worker Monday morning after the state worker’s truck struck and killed the dad’s teenage son on the side of a road, officials said.
According to Person County Sheriff’s Office, Chad Woods was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and theft of a motor vehicle.
The incident happened just before 6:30 a.m. Monday, police said, when Woods and his family ran out of gas roughly 25 miles north of Durham. They were walking down a road when a Department of Corrections truck driven by Jeffrey McKay crashed into Woods’s 17-year-old son.
