The news source states Greenville police announced that Cameron Adrian Griffin, a 21-year-old from Kernersville, died at Vidant Medical Center in Greenville after the crash, which occurred about about 3 a.m. on Sunday, February 5. Griffin was riding in the eastbound lanes on Third Street when he allegedly struck the curb at the Jarvis Street intersection, causing him to lose control of the motorcycle. Griffin then crashed through a wood rail fence and struck a brick house next to Christie's Euro Pub, the news source stated.
