Authorities say s 2008 Chevy Suburban owned by Jackie Porter, of Red Oak, and driven by 17-year old Murphy Porter, of Red Oak, was stopped at the intersection of Highway 34 and Avenue K at around 12:15-p.m., and was pulling away from the intersection, when the vehicle struck an eastbound 2012 Dodge Caravan, driven by 38-year old John McDonald, of Stanton.

After the Suburban hit the van on its left front side, the van entered the southeast ditch, while Porter’s vehicle came to rest on Avenue K, just south of Highway 34. Damage from the collision amounted to $8,500. Porter was cited for a stop sign violation.
