A confrontation between a driver and a pedestrian turned heated on June 25, 2025, on Raleigh Road in Clayton, Johnston County. The pedestrian allegedly called the driver a derogatory name, prompting the driver to record the exchange. The driver, a local newspaper carrier, warned the pedestrian to be cautious with her words, as not everyone may react as calmly.

So I’m a newspaper carrier for the county and I deliver in that neighborhood daily and I’ve seen her yell at cars a lot. Never thought I’d be the one she come across but I was ready for it! She called me horrible names before I started to record. I mentioned to her after recording that you need to be careful who you speak to like that next person may not be so nice.
