An 8-year-old girl was thrown from a minivan early today when it collided with another vehicle in an intersection, Fountain Valley Police reported.
The accident was reported about 6:30 a.m. at the intersection of Warner and Bushard avenues, Sgt. Steve DeSantis said in a released statement. The accident occurred when a Toyota Camry entered the intersection from westbound Warner Avenue and collided with a white Ford Aerostar minivan, that entered the intersection from southbound Bushard Avenue.
