Antioch: Two Juveniles Airlifted to Local Hospitals After Being Struck by Suspected DUI Driver

by ECT

One woman was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence and causing a vehicle crash which injured three others Saturday afternoon in the City of Antioch.

The incident occurred at 5:55 pm at D Street and W. 18th Street after a female was allegedly traveling at a high rate of speed struck another vehicle causing it to strike a tree.

The vehicle which struck the tree, had three injured occupants in it and one female victim trapped. Firefighters began extrication and began to work to free the victim which took nearly 20-minutes as they had to use special tools to pry the door open.

In total, two juvenile patients were airlifted to local hospitals (UC Davis and Children’s in Oakland). A third patient was ground transported by AMR. The extent of their injuries are not known.

Meanwhile, a female driver was taken into custody for suspected DUI, it appeared she did not sustain any injuries.

I was there when this accident took place!!! I PRAY the young man who was driving knows that he is not at fault and he did not run the stop sign like the female driver of the other car was screaming at him. I held his head for a few mins before the first responders got there and she kept telling that at him until.i was able to jump back at her to get her away from him. I yelled at her that she was at fault but she was tweaked I’m pretty sure. She did try to swing on me… I will never get the image of your nephews face or his voice as he kept asking me if he was the one who ran the stop sign. I kept reassuring him that he was not at fault at all and that he did stop but she was going so fast she couldn’t have stopped if she wanted too. Please let them know that if things go to the point they need a witness I’d be more than willing to testify against that stupid c__t.
