Mrs. Gibson, a retired textile worker was killed instantly when the vehicle in which she was a passenger went out of control and over-turned on a rural road near Wadesboro. Mrs. Gibson was thrown through the rear glass of the vehicle which was driven by Jimmy Ray Britt, 18, of Lilesville. State Highway Patrolman A. W. Whitlock reported that another passenger, Kathy Brigman, 63, of Lilesville was injured and received treatment at a Wadesboro Hospital. The officer said the youth, who had had his driver's license only nine months, apparently was driving at a high rate of speed. Whitlock explained that Britt lost control on a curve and the Corvair skidded 223 ft. down the pavement, ran into the left shoulder, traveled 51 feet on the shoulder. As the car came back onto the pavement, the patrolman said the left rear wheel came off, the car skidded another 30 feet and flipped upside down. The vehicle then skidded 35 feet across the highway on it's top and 67 feet down the shoulder, he continued. Young Britt faces charges of involuntary manslaughter and driving too fast for conditions.
