Elizabeth City Police Force is joining the family of an officer in mourning his death Tuesday.
Elizabeth City Police Officer Lonnie Lee Moore Junior was off-duty when he crashed early Sunday morning on Highway 13, south of Windsor in Bertie County. Troopers think Moore may have swerved to avoid a deer, and ended up hitting a utility pole. Investigators don't think Moore was wearing a seat belt.
Another person in the car, 47 year-old Stephanie Gallerson of Tampa, Florida was airlifted to Pitt County Memorial Hospital. She's listed in good condition this morning.
No funeral arrangements for officer Moore have been announced yet. A press conference has been scheduled for Tuesday at 2 PM at the Elizabeth City Police Department.

just found out i lost a brother life will never be the same r.i.p. wish i could hear a corny joke right now would be the best present in the world i love man gregg t.
Its soo annoying to read comments about what Officer Lonnie should have or shouldn't have done. At this point it does not matter. I am the daughter of one of his EXTREMELY close friends and I am sadden by his death. My mother is hurting EVERYDAY since he has died. I now have to deal with my own sadness as well as hers. THis is the last thing I need to read. What about how he treated everyone with kindness. How when you are sad he is there to cheer you up. How my mother was protected b/c he would ride out patrol her neighbor. how I am in baltimore and when he was alive I did not have to worry about her. Yes we have our opinions, but I just wish people would stop dwelling on the neg. and appreciate the pos. OFFICER LONNIE L. MOORE JR. YOU WILL BE MISSED RIP.
I WORKED WITH LONNIE WITH IN THE CITY OF PETERSBURG, AND THE TOWN OF WAVERLY, VA. HE WAS OUT STANDIMG WITH IN THE FIELD OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND WOULD GO OUT OF WAY TO DO ANYTHING FOR YOU. GOD BLESS AND TAKE CARE, ON YOUR WAY HOME.
