PAMLICO COUNTY, N.C. (WITN) – A Pamlico County woman died in a fiery crash when her car went under the back of a utility truck this morning.

The Highway Patrol said 34-year-old Kasey Tyndall, of Bayboro, was trapped inside her car and died.

The crash happened on Highway 55 near Lee Landing Road, west of Grantsboro, around 11:00 a.m.
