Four people were injured in a two-car accident Wednesday on Route 33 at Prole Road, after one driver allegedly failed to yield the right of way.

Injured were Joyce Bruyere, 71, of Tonawanda, her passenger, Annette R. Lund, 74, the driver of the second vehicle, Lindsay H. Fisher, 24, of Darien Center and her passenger, Rachel L. Piacente.

At least one person needed to be extricated from a vehicle following the accident by Town of Stafford Fire Department.

Mercy EMS transported Bruyere and Lund to UMMC, and Fisher and Piacente to Strong.

Deputy Joseph Graff said in his report that Fisher was heading northeast on Route 33 and Bruyere was stopped facing north at Prole Road. Bruyere then allegedly pulled onto Route 33 as Fisher's car approached.

Bruyere was issued a traffic citation.
