Columbus County mother, daughter die in crash that injured younger woman's husband, baby

By Deuce Niven, Correspondent

        FAIR BLUFF - A mother and daughter died in a collision with a tractor-trailer that injured the younger woman's husband and infant child Thursday afternoon, said Trooper E.E. Nance Jr. of the North Carolina Highway Patrol.

        Pamela Hamilton, 49, of Dave Meares Road in Cerro Gordo, died at the scene of the 2:19 p.m. crash on U.S. 76, 2.3 miles east of Fair Bluff, Assistant Columbus County Coroner William Hannah said.

        Hamilton's daughter, Jennifer Sanders, 26, of Andrew Jackson Highway SW in Fair Bluff, died later at McLeod Loris (S.C.) hospital, Columbus County Coroner Linwood Cartrette said.

        Sanders' husband, Billy Ray Sanders Jr., 27, and their 6-month-old daughter LeAnn Ray Sanders, were taken by ambulance to Grand Strand Regional Medical Center in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Sanders was in critical condition Thursday night, while the baby was in stable condition, Nance said.

        Hamilton was driving a 1997 Ford Taurus and had slowed some distance ahead of the Sanderses' home, Nance said.

        A tractor-trailer loaded with grain, driven by Shual Gene Sellers, 31, of Old Stake Road in Chadbourn, moved to the left lane and was attempting to pass the Ford when Hamilton turned left, heading for her daughter's driveway.

        The truck slammed into the driver's side of the small car. Hamilton died in the car of massive head trauma, Hannah said.

        No charges are anticipated, Nance said.

Jennifer Dawn Bigley Sanders - Pamela Casto Hamilton - Car-truck wreck kills mother, daughter near Fair Bluff:

Deceased Name: Jennifer Dawn Bigley Sanders - Pamela Casto Hamilton - Car-truck wreck kills mother, daughter near Fair Bluff

        A 49-year-old woman and her 26-year-old daughter were killed Thursday afternoon in the crash of a car, driven by the mother, that abruptly turned left in front of a passing 18-wheel grain truck just east of Fair Bluff.

        Highway Patrol Trooper Gene Nance said Pamela Casto Hamilton, 49, of Dave Meares Road, Cerro Gordo, died at the scene in the 2:19 p.m. crash. Jennifer Dawn Bigley Sanders of the 11100 block of U.S. 76, Fair Bluff, died at a Loris, S.C., hospital.

        Sanders' husband, Billy Ray Sanders Jr., 27, and their 1-year-old daughter, Leann Ray Sanders, were injured. Both were released from a Myrtle Beach, S.C., hospital during the weekend. The child was in a child-restraint seat, Nance noted.

No turn signal

        The double-fatality wreck raised the number killed on Columbus County's roads this year to nine, eight of them in rural wrecks, and one in Tabor City.

        Nance said the truck driver, Shula Gene Sellers, 31, of Old Stake Road, Chadbourn, said he saw a 1997 Ford car slowing in front of him as the vehicles headed west on U.S. 76, near the intersection of Ice Plant Road.

        Nance said Sellers told him he moved to the left to pass the car, and the car – not using a turn signal – abruptly turned left toward a private driveway in the 11100 block of U.S. 76, the home of the Sanders couple. The truck was traveling an estimated 55 mph, and was loaded with grain. The truck is owned by T&L Transport with a N.C. 410 South, Chadbourn, address.

Helicopters

        Nance said it didn't appear any of the victims were trapped. The child was moved to the Myrtle Beach hospital from Loris, and Billy Ray Sanders Jr. was moved to the beach facility from the Loris hospital by helicopter, the trooper added.

        A rescue helicopter was called to the scene, but was not used to transport any of the injured.

        Maria Sellers, 34, a passenger in the truck, and Sellers were not injured in the crash.

        Nance said the impact of the truck hitting the driver's side of the car knocked the car into a ditch, and the truck eventually stopped in a ditch beyond the point of impact.
