AFTER PASSING ON A DOUBLE YELLOW LINE
The NC Highway Patrol is reporting that a former Hendersonville High School student is dead after a fatal wreck Sunday night.
Highway Patrol identified the driver as 18-year-old Domingo Tomas-Hernandez.
It happened just before Beaumont Estates on Kanuga Road on Sunday. Troopers received the call around 9:45 p.m.
Sgt.Chris Goodson said Tomas-Hernandez was leaving Hendersonville and tried to pass a driver by crossing over a double yellow line.
Once he got past the car and came back into his lane, Goodson said the driver lost control, ran off the side of the road, went up an embankment, hit a telephone pole and came to a stop upside down in a ditch.
Kanuga Road was closed in both directions near East Patterson Street until approximately 3 a.m. due to the incident.
