wo sisters were killed near Crimora on Tuesday when a sport utility vehicle slammed into their car after they passed a stop sign without slowing down, police said.

Wanda Virginia Stambaugh, 63, of Fredericksburg, was driving a gray 2007 Toyota Corolla west on Route 612 at around 35 mph when she passed the stop sign and proceeded onto Route 340, where the vehicle was broadsided by a southbound blue 1999 Ford Explorer, Virginia State Police Sgt. David Cooper said.

Stambaugh’s sister, Barbara Jean Trent, 64, of Gauley Bridge, W.Va., was riding in the passenger seat, Cooper said.
