The Highway Patrol said Friday that troopers investigating a fatal Johnston County head-on crash found a small amount of marijuana on the lone survivor the night the wreck happened Jan. 21 in Kenly.

Troopers did not indicate whether they planned to file charges against Travis Foster, 16. They gave no indication that investigators think drugs were involved in the accident.

Police have determined that Nicholas Creech, 16, was speeding and had driven across the center line of South Johnston Parkway Road when he collided with a truck driven by his friend, Reece Richardson, 17.

Foster was a passenger in Creech's truck. He was reported to be in good condition Friday night at WakeMed.

Funeral services were held for Creech and Richardson Wednesday evening at North Johnston High School, where they were juniors. More than 1,400 people gathered to pay their respects.

Graveside services were held Thursday.

Well thats fine you got your opinion and I have mine, certain ones just need to learn respect toward others opinions and stop gettin all bent out of shape. Thanks

if you all had to meet this sherlock dude face to face would you want him to be truthful with you or would you respect him more if he lied to you? just curious bikenbarney southerncntry82 dudes their comin after you next

He deserves to be charged. Just because he was in a bad wreck and people lost there lives dont excuse him of wrong doing. Im getting tired of society "babying" people no matter where in ths US. The boy had a drug on him it dont matter how big or small the amount. Drugs are drugs people period! It amazes me how some people try to sugar coat crap to make it sound all nice. But I guess since (sarcasticly) "awww he is only 16 and it was only a small amount and he was in a bad sccident" Thats ok so lets excuse him. HA! If thats the case everyone who does wrong should get off if your gonna nit-pick mess out to look for a reason to feel sorry for them.
