RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - The North Carolina Highway Patrol says at least 20 people were killed in vehicle accidents during the busy Thanksgiving travel period.
The number includes all highway accidents between 6 p.m. Wednesday and Sunday night.
Patrol spokesman Lieutenant Everett Clendenin says the number could increase as reports are updated.
The number is already higher than in 2006, when 11 died during the long holiday weekend.
