As the Chevrolet drove through the green light at the intersection with South Flores Street, a Saturn Vue, driving the wrong way, hit the Chevrolet. The Saturn was driving north in the south lanes of South Flores.
The front passenger of the Chevrolet, a 37-year-old woman, suffered a broken arm and was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the Saturn, later identified as 43-year-old Marivel Ramirez, was found to be intoxicated by officials at the scene and is being charged with intoxication assault.
