Seven people including a small child are recovering from injuries after a head-on collision Friday evening in Wayne County.
The wreck happened at the intersection of Old Mount Olive Highway and Genoa Road around 8:40 p.m. The victims had to be cut out of the vehicle by Mar-Mac firefighters.
Authorities said Noemi Torres Gonzalez of Lagrange was driving a truck south on Old Mount Olive Highway that struck a car driven by Little Arthur Chambers of Goldsboro.
Law enforcement officials said Gonzalez was charged in the wreck.
Officers from the North Carolina Highway Patrol along with deputies from the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office arrived minutes after the crash. Deputies assisted with blocking off Genoa Road at the intersection of Pecan Road, and blocking off lanes of Old Mount Olive Highway.
