Mount Pleasant police officers inspect a blue pick-up truck after a collision with a red pickup truck at about 7:15 p.m. Friday at the intersection of East Campus Drive and Preston Street. The blue truck did not stop at the stop sign on East Campus Drive traveling north, and upon hitting the red truck, both shifted toward the Health Professions Building, each stopping on the sidewalk and one through a street sign and into a campus brick wall. Sgt. Shawn Paul said there were no life-threatening injuries, but one driver was sent to the emergency room. Both vehicles were undriveable and were towed from the scene. "It's a pretty good collision when both vehicles are coming off the road like this," Paul said. "People need to be aware of their surroundings. The driver did not see the stop sign and ran right through it. That's what caused the accident."
