“Police believe that the driver of the Pontiac Sunfire failed to come to a complete stop at the stop sign before entering the intersection. The driver and passenger of that vehicle (Pontiac Sunfire), a man and a woman, were each transported to the hospital for further medical assessment of what police believe to be non-life threatening injuries.
