Man Suffers Serious Injuries during Collision

A regular day at the convenience store turned deadly when a woman crashed her sedan into the business. Unfortunately a customer, Carlos Martinez, was in the path of the auto when it happened. She suffered serious facial and head injuries and was rushed to the hospital as soon as medical help arrived.

Teresa Petersen, the driver of the car, was driving on South Rancho Santa Fe Road when she veered off the road, crossed the 7-Eleven parking lot and crashed through the front door. The car went all the way through the store to back, hitting Martinez along the way. Petersen was also taken to the hospital to be examined.

At the time of the auto accident Deputy Tammy Bennetts estimates that she was traveling at a speed of about 40 mph. At this time investigators have not determined the cause of the accident and will continue to look into this case.
