A dispute between a Durham photographer and the UNC Stone Center led to a photo exhibition being canceled days before it was set to debut on UNC's campus.
Before photographer Cornell Watson could open his new photo exhibit on UNC-Chapel Hill's campus, the university asked for the removal of specific images. Later, the university canceled his exhibition "Tarred Healing" altogether – less than a week before it was set to open.
The crash happened at around 9:30 p.m. Thursday near 43rd Avenue and Buckeye Road.
The driver of the red car, identified as 55-year-old James Cates, was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.
