ELLENBORO, N.C. (WTVD) -- A funeral service took place on Thursday for the family killed in a deadly crash in Garner last week.

A young married couple, Tyler and Susan Campbell, and their son, Miles, were killed in a wreck on U.S. 70.

The funeral service started at noon Thursday at Corinth Baptist Church in Ellenboro.

That's in Rutherford County where the couple grew up.

A memorial service will be held Saturday at Summit Church on Vandora Springs Road in Garner.



The suspect in the crash, 25-year-old Jordan Porter, is charged with three counts of second-degree murder and various other charges.

According to search warrants, Porter's wife told investigators he had consumed two or three beers and smoked marijuana before driving to work.

She also said they knew the car he was driving needed multiple repairs including the brakes and steering wheel.
