Raleigh, NC : Missed turn led to police chase, double-fatal Raleigh crash, man charged says on Wednesday, March 15th 2017
The driver of the van was identified as Shaun Dontay Jackson, 36, of Raleigh. Jackson and a 10-year-old boy both had minor injuries, police said. Holloway was seriously injured in the crash and died the next morning at the hospital.
According to warrants, one of the detectives assigned to the case visited McGregory at WakeMed to get his version of events. The man waived his Miranda Rights and spoke freely to the detective, according to warrants.
McGregory said he had been drinking with friends in the area of Bragg Street near downtown Raleigh before he left in a silver Pontiac G6, a car that was known in the neighborhood as a “drug rental.” Documents state the car, which was registered in South Carolina, was passed around among people who lived in the neighborhood in exchange for crack cocaine.
The 18-year-old told police he was flagged down by Taylor while driving near Bragg Street and she asked him to take her to McDonald’s. McGregory headed to a McDonald’s in Garner, but “missed his turn on Timber Drive” and then had to come back the other way to make his turn, the warrant shows. It was at that time that he felt a “rustling in his pants,” he told police. He said Taylor was trying to get into his pants and that caused him to swerve while he was already speeding. McGregory said that he then saw blue lights behind him, according to warrants.
