Four people, including two children, were hospitalized after a single-car crash on I-40 in Sampson County.
The driver involved in the crash was taken to a hospital, Clayton Police said.
Officials said the Amtrak train conductor was trying to help two people injured from a crash involving the train when multiple alligators confronted the conductor in the water nearby.
A car slammed into the treeline near Exit 183, killing two people inside.
The crash closed a section of NE Maynard Road for more than seven hours.
