A Nags Head, N.C., police sergeant died early Friday after losing control of his car in heavy rain on the way to a break-in.  Sgt. Dulan Earl Murray Jr., 48, was responding to a reported breaking and entering when he lost control of his car and hit a power pole about 3:53 a.m. in the 3000 block of S. Croatan Hwy. near Nags Head Elementary School. 

Another motorist saw the crash, and a second Nags Head officer was on the scene quickly, Murray died at the scene.  Murray is survived by his wife, Kimberly, and daughters Paige and Samantha.  Estimated Murray was traveling about 50 mph when he hit the pole. It was raining heavily, and it's possible that water pounded on the roadway, causing him to lose control.

Murray had worked for Nags Head since February 1997 and had more than 26 years in law enforcement.
