One Person Charged In Fatal Fiery Crash Incident

The crash involved two tractor-trailers and a boat and sparked a large fire under an overpass.

One person has been charged in connection to a fatal crash in Scotland County.

Last Thursday, a crash occurred on the eastbound lanes of Highway 74 in Laurinburg.

The crash involved two tractor-trailers and a boat and sparked a large fire under an overpass.

One person died but their identity has not been publicly released.

65-year-old Billy Oxendine faces charges, but it is unclear if he has been arrested or what he is being charged with.

Meanwhile, eastbound lanes of the highway are expected to remain closed through Friday as crews make repairs to the road and bridge.

There is a detour in place which goes from Highway 501 south to Old Maxton Road. Travelers then proceed to Patterson Road onto North Rocky Ford Road, which eventually takes you to Highway 74.
