Kaylee Royse, an Ayden Middle School student, had a seizure on September 8 in the school library and her mother said the school called her before calling EMS—she felt very scared during the event.

The NCDMV released new wait time data that shows an average statewide wait of 2 hours and 45 minutes—Greenville reported a wait of about 1 hour and 44 minutes while some areas see waits of up to 5 hours.
