TAYLORSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA — The Alexander County community is grieving the sudden death of 31-year-old Justice Mcray Boyette of Winston-Salem, who was killed in a serious two-vehicle collision on U.S. 64.

According to the North Carolina State Highway Patrol, the fatal crash occurred on Monday, September 21, 2026, at approximately 10:03 a.m. near Adams Pond Road.

Investigators said a 2024 Ram tow truck was traveling west along U.S. 64 when it crossed the center line and entered the path of oncoming traffic. The truck subsequently collided head-on with a 2023 Freightliner tractor-trailer.

The collision resulted in a devastating fire, and the Ram became fully engulfed in flames with Boyette trapped inside. Emergency personnel responded to the scene, but Boyette sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the location of the crash.

The Freightliner was driven by 56-year-old Crystal Sue Austin of Lenoir, who suffered serious injuries in the collision. She was airlifted to CMC Main for medical treatment.

The crash prompted authorities to shut down U.S. 64 for several hours while troopers worked to investigate the circumstances and clear the scene. Witness reports also indicated that a Taylorsville police officer and another person attempted to help control the flames after the collision.

Following the investigation, the Highway Patrol confirmed that no charges will be filed in connection with the crash.
