Authorities find driver two days after crash

Authorities say a North Carolina man who spent two nights in his vehicle after crashing down a steep embankment along Interstate 77 has been found.

Jonesville Police Chief Roger Reece said 84-year-old Miles Grady Brooks was alive but unresponsive when crews reached his white Cadillac today.

Motorists reported on Sunday night that a white Cadillac was traveling the wrong direction on I-77.

Officers searched along the highway but couldn't find any sign of the car, and they issued a public alert for help.

Reece said a farmer feeding his cows saw the car early this morning.
