A collision involving two suspected impaired drivers left one seriously injured at the intersection of Cedar Street and Mt. Whitney Avenue, according to a statement made by the California Highway Patrol on Wednesday.

The crash happened when one of the drivers ran a stop sign, causing a devastating impact between the two vehicles.

Both drivers, whose names have not been released, were believed to be under the influence at the time of the incident.
