Two people were sent to the hospital after a two-vehicle crash on Santa Monica Boulevard at Birch Avenue Thursday afternoon.

A vehicle driving northbound on Santa Monica Boulevard failed to yield to a southbound vehicle while attempting to turn left onto Birch Avenue around 4:15 p.m. Thursday, said Whitefish Bay Police Sergeant Beth Formella. The southbound vehicle then careened into a tree on a resident's lawn on the southwest corner of the intersection.

Both drivers were transported to an area hospital for injuries, but the injuries are not believed to be life-threatening, Formella said.
