Chad Woods, a resident of Timberlake, North Carolina, has been taken into custody following an incident where he allegedly shot a driver who had fatally struck his 17-year-old son with a vehicle in Person County, North Carolina. The unfortunate accident occurred when Woods’ family ran out of fuel on Dink Ashley Road and were making their way home on foot. The driver, identified as Jeffrey McKay, an employee of the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction, immediately contacted emergency services after colliding with the teenager at approximately 6:30 a.m. on Monday. Following the collision, Woods reportedly retrieved a firearm and fatally shot McKay before leaving the scene with McKay’s car and driving back to his residence. Authorities have revealed that Woods subsequently disposed of the weapon in a nearby pond, prompting a dive team to search for it. However, the firearm has yet to be recovered, and the search will resume on Tuesday morning. Woods has been charged with second-degree murder and motor vehicle theft. It is important to note that McKay was operating a vehicle owned by the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction at the time of the incident, where he served as an electrical supervisor in central engineering..
