Who are you referring to? "She" Are you talking about Greta or the reporter on the street.

The reporter on street stated that they received several calls about a collision on northbound 95. She stated highway patrol stated it was within a 3-4 mile ranges based on the phone calls. She also said at the end of her broadcast that they said 3-4 miles is too much to investigate thoroughly.

What report did you hear?

She did NOT; and she is not standing in the street; she was standing in the wrecker yard two feet from the car.

She did NOT; she said that that area ALWAYS has accidents where people call in and say there's an accident near Rocky Mount and that THAT is a three to four mile distance and so it's hard to figure out where people are talking about.

They got ONE call........which is exactly what the WRAL reporter said.

From the WRAL report:

Last week, Nash County 911 Communications had notified the Highway Patrol of a traffic collision near the location where the vehicle was recovered, but emergency personnel were never able to locate a collision at the location or see any debris, the Highway Patrol said.

"A lot of times, these accidents are given out on I-95 in the northbound lane, and it could be a three- or four-mile stretch," Stone said.

BTW, there was NO collision; it was a single car accident.
