A man was killed on Thursday (May 1st) in a crash of Burke County and one person was charged. The deceased is the 67-year-old Rex Ivy Powell from Morganton.

On Thursday at around 1:40 p.m., the North Carolina State Highway Patrol reacted to NC 181 in Bowman Avenue. A FEDEX delivery car from 2015, which drove in the east in Bowman Avenue, tried to cross NC 181 from a stop sign, and hit a Nissan border from 2006 to the north. This collision prompted the Nissan to collide and reverse with a guardrail.

The driver of the border, Rex Ivy Powell, was ejected from the vehicle and died of his injuries at the scene. He was not held back by a seat belt. The driver of the delivery van, the 27-year-old Talmadge James Belcher from Lenoir, was brought to a regional hospital by Ems with minor injuries.

The first examination shows no impairment or speed to contribute to factors. Belcher was charged with vehicle for offense and not the presence of the path. During the examination in front of the scene, the road was closed in the area in the area for about two hours.
