In Wittier, CA, LASD recruits from the Sheriff’s Academy were on their daily 6:30 AM run. Suddenly the driver of an SUV going the wrong way turned into the group. The end result of this was one victim on a ventilator, one with the loss of a limb and numerous other injuries. The injuries range from superficial to extremely critical. A total of 25 recruits were injured.
During the investigation several witnesses said they heard the SUV accelerate before striking the runners. The driver was arrested at the scene and charged with attempted murder of a peace officer. Here’s the rub. At 9:49 PM Thursday, 11/17 the suspect was released from confinement. Apparently the DA didn’t think there was sufficient evidence to keep this jerk in jail.
The intensive and extensive investigation continues. When finished the facts and circumstances wrll be presented to the DA…Don’r expect a lot and you won’t be dissapointed. I’ll keep everyone posted as this case progresses.
Peace
