Two families were taken to the hospital after a collision in Eagle Springs on Saturday.
In the early afternoon, the Eagle Springs Fire Department, Moore County Sheriff’s Department, Moore County EMS, and N.C. State Highway Patrol responded to a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Bensalem Church Road and Big Oak Church Road.
Authorities told Sandhills Sentinel at the crash site that a Honda Odyssey was traveling westbound on Bensalem Church Road when a Ford Flex heading southbound on Big Oak Church Road failed to yield at the stop sign.
Both families, a total of three adults and four children, were taken to the emergency department for non-life-threatening injuries.
Airbags were deployed in both vehicles, and the Honda sustained extensive front-end damage, while the Ford sustained most of the damage on the passenger side.
The Ford took out the stop sign on the opposite side of Big Oak Church Road.
