SELINSGROVE -- A Bloomsburg woman blew through a stop sign and caused an accident that sent seven people to the hospital Sunday afternoon, state police said.

State police in Selinsgrove said Sandra Lee Buck, 59, was driving east on App Road and failed to stop at the intersection with Mill Road, placing her in front of Kenneth Eugene Royer, 76, of Coal Township, as he was heading north on Mill.

Royer crashed into Buck's 2004 Chevy Malibu, police said. His 1995 Isuzu Rodeo spun counterclockwise and ended up facing south in the northbound lane, while Buck's car plowed into a cornfield.

Buck's passenger, Debra Lynn Huff, 54, of Sunbury, was unresponsive at the scene, police said, and was flown by helicopter to Geisinger Medical Center in Danville.

Royer, his wife, Charmaine, 71, and their daughter Helen, 39, were taken to Geisinger by ambulance, as were Buck and her other passengers -- Harry Alfred Walters, 58, Sunbury, and Cindy Boyer, 58, Milton, police said.

Information on their conditions was unavailable at press time.

Cindy Royer said the Royers were at her house just up the road for a birthday party and had just left when they got into the accident.

"(Buck) came flying through the intersection," Cindy Royer said.

Emergency personnel from Shamokin Dam, DH&L, Middleburg and Hummels Wharf fire companies, as well as Americus Hose Company Ambulance and Evangelical Community Hospital assisted police at the scene.
