OUTER BANKS, N.C. — A crash at a busy intersection on Caratoke Highway is causing traffic backups in Currituck County Tuesday morning.
This happened where the highway intersects with Shawboro Road. As of 10:30 a.m., the intersection is completely blocked off. Drivers are being asked by officials to turn around, News 3's Will Thomas reports.
