A Volunteer Firefighter was killed in early this morning in the Line of Duty when his car wrecked as he was on the way to a vehicle fire...he was not wearing his seat belt. 18-year-old Matthew Douglas Tramel of the Pembroke (N.C.) Fire Department was killed about 0053 hours this morning when the vehicle he was driving struck a tree. FF Tramel was driving his private vehicle, and was alone in the car, was driving about 65 mph in a 55-mph zone when the vehicle exited the road to the left and struck the tree.
FF Tramel, who, as stated, was not wearing a seat belt and was killed immediately. He joined the Pembroke FD in April of this year. Our sincere condolences to all affected-especially the members of the PFD and his friends and family.
