GREENVILLE, N.C. (WITN) – A local church sign has been hit by a speeding vehicle that veered off the road.

“They came down Elm Street and ran off the road, so maybe at a pretty good speed,” Jim Wood says, a member of the church’s support committee.

Today, Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Greenville is picking up the pieces from damage they believe was done Monday night.
