ROCKINGHAM COUNTY, N.C. – A Rockingham County Middle School student has died after being struck by an SUV while trunk-or-treating Friday night. Noah Chambers was 11.

The North Carolina Highway Patrol says no charges have been filed against the driver, who was not speeding or impaired.

Rockingham County Middle School will hold a moment of silence in his honor and read a statement to students. School officials say a memorial will also be held at a later date, to be decided by students.

State troopers received calls of a pedestrian hit by a car in on Haw River Road in Guilford County around 7 p.m. Friday. Chambers was crossing the road from an overflow parking lot to the main parking lot of Bethel United Methodist Church. He walked into the path of a Jeep SUV that was traveling northeast.

The driver of the car was not injured
