ST. CLOUD, Fla. -- A pregnant central Florida woman died in a crash when another driver pulled out in front of her.

The Florida Highway Patrol reports that 23-year-old Kristen Nicole Wright was traveling on U.S. 192 near St. Cloud early Thursday morning when a 17-year-old girl failed to yield at a stop sign and crossed into the road. The other car collided with Wright's car, causing it to overturn. The pregnant woman was pronounced dead at the scene. A report said she had not been wearing a seat belt.

FHP says the other car's teenage driver and 18-year-old female passenger were both hospitalized with serious injuries.
